Cash is king and cash is crucial to any company. Mismanagement of the cash in- and out-flows will often lead to insolvency of the firm. Smaller companies often assume that liquidity management is for larger corporations. On the contrary smaller firms usually default due to the lack of good cash flow management.  Cash flow management is a key competency. But can you measure it, manage it and report it?  Also remember that when applying for financing, banks will ask for a cashflow statement. Bank credit officers also need to understand the liquidity management basics to check loan requests. So, plenty of reasons to dive into this subject. 

Good luck!
