Resources / Cash-flow calculator

How much of your cash is parked in receivables?

Two numbers tell you: what you invoice per month, and how long you actually wait to get paid. The result is the receivables balance you're carrying right now — money earned, not yet in the bank.

HOW THE MATH WORKS

What this calculator measures

Your outstanding receivables balance is roughly monthly invoice volume × (average days to pay ÷ 30.44). If you invoice $500K a month and wait 62 days on average, about $1.02M of your cash sits in other people's accounts payable at any moment. With Yellowpay funding every invoice within 2 business days, that balance comes off your books — once — and stays off from then on.

Why "average days to pay" beats your stated terms

Your terms might say NET-30, but projects pay on milestones and draws, and retailers pay on their own calendar. Use your real DSO — days sales outstanding — from your accounting system if you have it. Most solar equipment distributors who think they run NET-30 measure a real DSO of 50–70 days.
