Cash Flow vs. Profit: Understanding Your Numbers Before Year-End

Your P&L says you're profitable. So why is the bank account empty? Profit and cash flow are not the same thing, and confusing them leads to poor decisions at exactly the wrong time of year.

In this practical session, Lawpath Head of Tax & Accounting Timothy Quinn bridges the gap between accounting literacy and real business decisions.

You'll learn how to read your P&L and cash flow statement, what they're actually telling you about the health of your business, and how to use both to plan smarter heading into the new financial year.
