On top of that, only some expenses are fully deductible, while others are partially deductible.

While selling a business probably isn’t the first scenario that comes to mind when you hear the phrase, it is definitely an appropriate mindset to have.

The old adages that "cash is king" and "you can’t spend profits" still hold true today. But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l

That is simply wrong, as there is almost always a range of potential effects from an event (such as a decision), and each point in that range has its own likelihood.
