As an example, say a company expects $1M in May sales and they forecasted they would receive $500k in cash during the Month of May. To add to this example, let's assume they started May with a Cash Balance of $200k and have forecasted Cash Outflows of $450k. I believe the May forecast would then look like this:     Starting Balance: $200,000 Expected collections: $500,000. Expected disbursements: $450,000. Ending Cash Balance: $250,000   What would happen, however, if the forecasted outflows -the total bills due- were $750,000 instead of $450,000? Please don't give solutions in an image format thank you
