Overview
In the third webinar session, participants review the fundamental differences between description and analysis in assessing and interpreting profitability and cash flow. They construct a personal cash flow statement from personal financial statement and personal income tax return information. They estimate the amount of personal cash flow available to support business debt service in good times and in a business cash flow crisis, as well as estimate the amount of ready cash support a guarantor can provide in a business cash flow crisis. In addition, participants explore the construction of a global cash flow statement and assess its benefits and limitations as an analytical tool in reaching a credit decision.

Objectives

- Identify the likely amount of personal cash flow available to support business debt service in good times based on the resulting personal cash flow statement.
- Identify the amount of ready cash available to a guarantor from business-related cash flow and from the liquidation of personal assets in a cash flow crisis and evaluate the estimate of ready cash against the cash needed to support the guarantor's life style and personal living expenses.
- Implement the analytical process for conducting global cash flow analysis for companies with common ownership, including the specific borrower.
- Construct global cash flows under various assumptions about the owners' ability to provide ready cash in a crisis, drawing on information in the personal cash flow statement and personal financial statement of the guarantor.
- Assess the use and application of global cash flow analysis in identifying likely cash pressures from one or more related parties that may impede the borrower's ability to properly service its interest-bearing debt.
