13-week cash
Your current weekly cash forecast — pick a named scenario to see when and why cash changes.
Why cash changed
- Net hires per month: 0 → 2 — Incremental payroll — each new hire adds $2,771 per week from the month they join
- Monthly equipment / capital spend: $0 → $7,536 — Three dated payments of $7,536 at each forecast month start
Timing assumptions
- New hires join at the start of each forecast month (weeks 1, 6 and 10) — assumed timing.
- Capex is modeled as one payment at each forecast month start (weeks 1, 6 and 10) — assumed timing, no dated invoices.
Monthly ending cash in Scenarios and Week-13 cash here use different horizons and methods (12-month monthly model vs 13-week direct method) — the deltas are not meant to match.
