 This means there will be differences between a firm’s cash balance and its
profit for the period… Example: on 1 April…
 Your parents give you $100 in advance to mow the lawn 10 times in the future
 You fill your car up with $50 fuel (will provide 500km of travel)
 You paid your monthly gym membership of $30 which gives you 10 sessions
$100
10/ = $10 per lawn
$50
500/ = $0.10 per km
$30
10/ = $3 per session
