Cash in the bank, next 13 weeks

Where cash is headed, week by week. Tight weeks show up here before they show up at payroll.

Projected weekly cash. It dips to $18,400 in week 7, under the $20,000 floor, then climbs to $151,000 by week 13.
Week 7 dips to $18.4K. Two payrolls and the equipment order for Whitfield land the same week. Bill Whitfield invoice #3 ($31,500) a week early and week 7 clears $49.9K. Nothing gets cut. It's a timing call.

Add a tech. What happens to cash?

Set the all-in monthly cost: wage, payroll taxes, insurance, phone and the truck. We weigh it against the cash this shop frees up each month after the owner's pay. It's the same math we run on your real numbers.
