@Quin ..Excess cash is a measure of cash that is not needed in normal operation of a business. It is calculated using the balance sheet..

 

Best wishes..

Hi, Jae, in the formula,

Excess Cash = Total Cash – MAX(0,Current Liabilities-Current Assets)

where to get the "total cash"? Is it from statement of cash flows "cash at the end of the period", or from FCF?

 

Thanks, 

Quin
