The different types of cash management are as follows:
Cash Flow From Operating Activities: This represents the sources and uses of cash from regular business activities. It shows how changes in working capital affect your business's financial health.
Free Cash Flow to Equity: This is the amount a business generates. It can be distributed to shareholders if the business performs well. If this number is positive, your business is making money. If it's negative, you're losing money.
Free Cash Flow to the Firm: This is a measurement of how much cash a company can generate after paying for all its expenses, reinvestments, taxes, etc. It's one of many financial indicators that can be used to measure a corporation's overall health.
Net Change in Cash: The net change in cash is the amount of money a company has at the end of an accounting period."
