Build a 13-week cash flow forecast and return a live Excel workbook. Use this when someone asks when they will run out of cash, how long their runway is, how much funding they need to bridge a gap, or wants a short-term liquidity or treasury forecast. Takes opening cash balance, expected receipts (or revenue and DSO), supplier payments (or purchases and DPO), payroll, loan instalments and taxes due. Returns the week-by-week grid, the first week cash goes negative, the peak funding need, and levers such as collecting earlier or paying later. Ask the user for the figures one at a time; call the tool once you have the opening balance plus receipts and supplier payments — payroll, loans and taxes default to zero if not given.
