Cash Management consists of cash incoming and outgoing from the different mediums in the company,i.e., from the company's operations, investment, and finance departments. Cash management is an important aspect of a company's financial stability. It consists of paying taxes, settling accounts, fulfilling obligations, staff salaries, rent, etc. Unfortunately, many businesses engage in poor cash management due to poor understanding of the cash flow cycle, lack of understanding of profit versus cash, bad capital investments and lack of cash management skills.
The most important cash
management equipment is a savings account, currency
discriminator, mutual funds, money market deposit
accounts, cash recycler, and savings bonds. Amongst
these, the prominent one's are cash
recyclers and currency discriminators.
Cash Recycler
- It is a compound appliance that handles a few easy but major tasks like accepting and dispensing cash. It also stores money safely, keeps an errorless accounting of cash, and mechanizes the cash cycle. Usually, they are found in banks, credit unions, and back-office retail cash rooms.
- Cash recyclers are a comprehensive approach to cash management.
- It reduces labor thus is also cost-effective; it
improves both staff and companies' productivity.
Currency Discriminator
- It is designed to help industries and organizations in managing cash.
- It helps in preparing bank deposits, and it counts banknotes quickly and accurately.
- If we insert a pile full of notes and currency of different denominations, it states the difference between them and counts the number of denominations.
- It also helps in keeping an audit trail.
These are the most effective and important
ways in modern times for cash management. They help ensure that there
is adequate cash to meet the current obligations while ensuring there are no
idle funds. This is especially important as businesses depend on the recovery
of receivables. If used properly the make sure that the cash flow is
not jeopardized. They ensure
the optimum utilization of cash to ensure maximum liquidity and profitability
and participate in making the proper collection, disbursement,
and cash investment flawless.
