Melbourne Business Advisory & 3-Way Forecasting Experts — Smart Planning Starts Here
We Have Answers
3-Way Forecasting & Cashflow Planning
3-Way Forecasting is one of the most important financial tools for growing businesses. By linking your Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, and Cashflow into one dynamic model, you gain a full picture of your business’s financial position — past, present, and projected.
It allows you to confidently answer critical questions like:
-
Can I afford to hire?
-
Do I have enough working capital for expansion?
-
What happens if sales drop or costs rise?
Our forecasts go beyond spreadsheets — we help you translate your goals into numbers, test scenarios, and make proactive decisions with clarity.
YOU MAY NEED TO KNOW
3-Way Forecasting Includes:
Budgeting
We help you build realistic, rolling budgets aligned with your strategy and operational needs — tracking performance and identifying variances in real time.
Cashflow Forecasting
Visualise your cash position week by week. Plan for shortfalls, understand your burn rate, and manage payment timing for better control.
Working Capital Management
Improve liquidity by optimising debtor collection, creditor terms, and inventory cycles — freeing up internal funds for growth.
Tax Planning
Forecast and provision for:
-
Income Tax
-
PAYG Instalments
-
BAS & GST Payments
-
Payroll Tax
This helps avoid last-minute tax stress and keeps you on top of obligations.
