Over the past couple of decades, advances in technology have allowed companies to operate faster and much more effectively, providing additional opportunities to develop and grow a small business successfully.

The old adages that "cash is king" and "you can’t spend profits" still hold true today. But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l

In reply to PD. Yes, you are so right. I did not touch of the other appraisals. If we are doing our jobs properly the spread at most in my opinion would be 3%-5% at most. The spreads are just too wide. So, he kept getting an appraisal until they hit the number. I wonder what he told the other two appraisers. This really stinks. I thank GOD I can pick what business I want.

Nice read Russell and you are spot on. As you clearly pointed out this was a one sided presentation by the station and reporter that had a predetermined outcome. It is interesting that they interviewed and quoted only those who had a vested interest in the outcome of the opinion piece as though they are an authority on the appraisal process. The most important people who should have been interviewed were boots on the ground appraisers; but then again, that would not have fit their agenda.
