Trace Cash Sources Before Funding Several Owner Priorities

By Don McClain

An owner considering expansion, property investment and an acquisition may be relying on the same cash in several plans. Trace who holds each source, what generated it, when it is available and what already depends on it. Keep entity records separate, count transfers once and distinguish recurring operations from one-time receipts and financing. Allocate available funds among existing obligations, transaction costs and retained resources before adding commitments. Don McClain explains how a coordinated cash review can clarify competing priorities. General educational commentary.
