Cash flow forecast.
To start my business I had £1000 from my own personal wealth and I decided that in the first quarter I would set myself a budget of £750. I used the budget to purchase all the relevant equipment. I managed to keep within the budget, with my total payments for the first quarter being only £556.34. For the next quarter I decided to set my self a lower budget of only £550, as there was no need to pay for the one-off purchases that I got during the first quarter, which included the ladder and roof rack. For the final three quarter my total payments were the same as I bought the same equipment every time, with my total payments being £395.36. Although the amount of window that I was cleaning was increasing through out the year there was no need to purchase extra equipment as I had surplus equipment from when I was cleaning fewer windows in the earlier months. My total expenditure for the whole year was £1,742.42.
