Beyond Basic Ratios

Most finance courses teach you current ratio and quick ratio, then call it done. But when you're managing real working capital, those ratios barely scratch the surface of what you need to know.

We focus on the analysis techniques that actually predict cash crunches before they happen. Think days sales outstanding trends, inventory velocity patterns, and supplier payment optimization.

  • Cash conversion cycle modeling across seasonal variations
  • Supplier payment terms impact on free cash flow
  • Customer concentration risk in receivables portfolios
  • Inventory obsolescence prediction using turnover analysis

Before this program, I was always reacting to cash flow problems after they started. Now I can spot potential issues two months ahead and actually do something about them. The inventory analysis techniques alone saved us from a major cash crunch last winter.
Patricia completed our March 2024 cohort and immediately implemented the seasonal forecasting models at her manufacturing company. She now mentors new participants in our program.
