Nonprofit Essentials - Cash Flow Forecast
The Cash Flow Forecast in Solver is a pre-built xFP&A planning template for the nonprofit industry. Designed for nonprofit organizations, it projects cash month by month over a 36-month horizon. A Projected Ending Cash dashboard charts the balance over time and summarizes key measures such as ending cash, the lowest projected balance, the month it occurs, average monthly inflows and outflows, and months of cash at the low point.
NOTE: This template is included as part of the Nonprofit Essentials.
Built for nonprofit organizations, this Solver planning template connects to your accounting data via the Solver Data Warehouse and writes approved inputs back for reporting. In addition, it forecasts contributions with seasonal factors, grant revenue recognized and received, program revenue, personnel and program and occupancy expenses, and calculates net change and ending cash for each month, with an Actual and Assumptions tab for inputs. It supports liquidity planning, board and lender reporting, and scenario analysis of fundraising seasonality.
