Template
Do not treat accounting profit and actual cash flow as the same thing. Do not draw a conclusion about a business's ability to pay, fund, or survive from reported net income, since accruals, non-cash charges, and revenue recognized but not collected make earnings diverge from cash. When the question is about liquidity or solvency, reason from cash flow, and do not let a profitable-looking income statement imply the cash to match.
