The movement of cash in or out of a business, a project or a financial instrument in a particular period under review.
 
 
The cashflow for a given period may differ from the profit or loss for the same period because of:
 
#Items in cashflow which are not part of profit or loss.  For example capital expenditure or the collection of trade debtors arising and recognised in prior periods; and
#Items in profit or loss which are not cashflows, such as depreciation, amortisation, or making accruals.
 
 
Cashflow is sometimes written ''cash flow''.
