1 thing to be aware of about these figures
- Credit sales and credit purchases have not been validated against your sales and purchases totals: Treviloq only runs this check for periods declared as not VAT registered on an invoiced basis. Your declared basis is not in question, and no mismatch has been established. Debtor and creditor days still use the credit figures entered.
A missing optional figure only holds back the results that need it. Everything else on this page is unaffected.

These are point-in-time measures, compared with the exact previous calendar month and, under Change in Year, the same month last year — never added up. They are only compared when both months use the same days, VAT and accounting basis. For debtor days, a rise is adverse and a fall is favourable. For debtor days, a rise is adverse and a fall is favourable. Other working-capital colours show direction only: for example, higher creditor days are not automatically good.

Change in Year compares year-to-date flows with the same months last year. Cash flows are added up for the year to date only when every month is saved as a single-period figure.
Where these cash figures came from
As saved from your own cash flow statement (Illustrative sample cash flow). Figures are for this period only. Cash flow is never added into profit or balance-sheet figures.
Change in cash balance (worked out from your balance sheets)
This month has no saved figures.
Cash position: actual and projected
Month-end cash at bank. If recent trends continue and no corrective action is taken.
Assumes recent turnover, margin, cost and working-capital trends continue. Other recent cash outflows are assumed to continue; unexplained inflows and new funding are not. A negative balance shows a shortfall, not an agreed overdraft.
Assumptions
- Turnover, gross margin, operating costs and the debtor, stock and creditor balance ratios each continue their six-month straight-line trend from the latest month.
- Monthly other income £0, interest £0 and tax £1,740 follow the recent monthly averages, not a tax payment schedule.
- Working-capital movements are counted once, from the projected balances.
- Other cash movements not explained by trading and working capital: April 2026 -£6,200; May 2026 -£270; June 2026 £2,344; July 2026 -£2,840; August 2026 -£9,635. Only outflows are carried forward: -£3,789 a month.
- This is a cautious, no-new-funding view, not a full cash flow forecast or a guaranteed outcome.

A dash means the figure was not available for that period. It is never treated as zero, and totals across periods are only ever added where the periods do not overlap. Being marked ready means the inputs are signed off; it does not by itself mean every result has been worked out.
