First run

Use the toolbench in this order.

New users should not start with a random calculator. Pick the path, run the first tool, then save or export only when the result is clear enough to act on.

Best for first-time users

Pick one path, not every tool.

1

Choose the decision path

Start with the situation first so CashIntel can suggest the right tool order instead of making you guess.

Open guided path
2

Run the first tool only

Do not try to use every tool. Start with the first one in the path, then follow the next-step prompts from the result.

3

Save, export, or continue later

Use saved drafts, copy, email, or PDF export once the output is clear enough to review with someone else.

Cash Runway & Breakeven

Check survival runway, breakeven, and immediate cash pressure.

Open first tool

Why this path

Do not jump to Working Capital Gap Planner before Cash Runway & Breakeven.

CashIntel orders the tools so you check the immediate constraint first, then move into the next tool only when the first result says it is worth going deeper.

Recommended Flow

Find the cash leak before adding commitments.

4 steps

Use this when sales look okay but cash still feels strained, or when payroll, rent, suppliers, and collections are creating pressure.

Stop here if

Runway is short, the cash gap is widening, or the viability read says the business is too fragile to add anything new.

Next recommended move

After the runway result, open Working Capital Gap Planner before trying grants, expansion, or a fresh spend decision.

Business Viability Snapshot

A fast viability read for Singapore operators. It checks whether the business has enough margin, cash coverage, and safety distance above breakeven before expansion or new commitments.

Revenue and cost inputs are:

Cash on hand is a balance. Largest customer share is a risk percentage. All outputs are monthly.

Additional monthly cost boxes

Add any extra recurring cost that affects viability, such as director fees, software subscriptions, insurance, utilities, or contractor retainers.

Risk Flags

Cash covers only 1.8 mo of monthly costs.

Recommended Actions

1

Repair one weak point before expansion: margin, rent, payroll, debt, or customer concentration.

2

Raise the cash buffer or reduce fixed cost until safety distance improves.

3

Run a 10-20% sales-drop scenario before signing new commitments.

Franchise / Expansion Readiness

Test whether a new outlet, franchise, or expansion plan has enough cash buffer, payback quality, and monthly operating strength before you sign a lease or commit capital.

Revenue and recurring costs are:

Upfront cost buckets and available cash are balances. Rental deposit is calculated from monthly rent. Royalty and marketing fees are percentages of revenue.

Additional upfront items

Add custom one-time cost boxes such as signage, agency fees, deposits, insurance, training travel, or opening marketing.

The expansion is too fragile from these inputs. Payback is No payback, and post-upfront buffer covers <1 mo of fixed costs.

Risk Flags

Expected monthly cash flow is not positive after fees and fixed costs.

Post-upfront cash covers only <1 mo of fixed monthly costs.

Recommended Actions

1

Do not sign the lease or franchise agreement until monthly cash flow is positive.

2

Reduce upfront capital or increase available cash before committing.

3

Ask for more location data, sales evidence, and support terms before proceeding.

CashIntel Risk Read

Proceed only after risk guardrails.

62/100

Strengths

  • Repeat customers and known menu
  • F&B outlet already has a clearer base to build from than a new concept with no operating history.

Weaknesses

  • Rent and payroll are rising
  • The decision should not proceed unless this weak point is quantified in cash terms.

Opportunities

  • Nearby offices are returning to higher weekday traffic
  • The opportunity is only useful if it improves cash flow without trapping the business in fixed cost.

Threats

  • Sales may soften if consumer spending tightens
  • External pressure should be treated as a cash-stress trigger, not just a market comment.

Risk Note

F&B outlet should not treat this as a clean yes. Convert the weak point into a measurable guardrail before committing.

Recommended Actions

1

Turn the weakness into a measurable threshold before proceeding.

2

Run a downside cash case and decide what action is triggered.

3

Negotiate terms that reduce fixed commitments or preserve exit flexibility.

Decision Read

F&B supplier is exposed to cash pressure. The cash gap is $117,180, and funding shortfall is $67,180.

Risk Flags

Usable cash does not cover the working capital gap. Shortfall is $67,180.

A slower collection case creates a shortfall of $109,180.

Usable cash covers only 1.6 mo of fixed cash costs after buffer.

The working capital gap is larger than cash available above buffer.

Recommended Actions

1

Do not chase growth until collection and inventory cash lock-up improves.

2

Ask for deposits, milestone payments, faster invoicing, or shorter credit terms.

3

Reduce inventory commitments or secure supplier support before accepting larger orders.
