How the 6 weeks work

Never worked in a finance team before? Start here. Each week you learn one part of a financial analyst’s job, practise it on the same company, and hand in one piece of work.

01
profit ≠ cash and why month by month → ↑ profit
Weeks 1 and 2

Close the month and build the model

Learn what happens at month end, where the numbers come from, and how profit, cash and debt fit into one simple model.

Hand in: a model that adds up
03
A B C D loses money
Week 3

Find the cash and the margin

See why a growing business can run short of cash, which products really make money, and what people cost.

Hand in: cash, margin and people
04
explained plan actual
Week 4

Plan, judge and explain

Build a budget people believe, judge two spending requests fairly, and explain why the result missed the plan.

Hand in: plan, review and bridge
05
BOARD READY
Week 5

Ask “what if?”

Test what happens if your biggest customer leaves, and get the numbers you need from the people who own them.

Practice: a what-if pack
06
Close Cash Plan Pack
Week 6

Capstone: own the month

Close a hard month, fix the plan and back a decision with numbers, then present it like a monthly pack.

Final: a monthly pack

THE CASH LAB

Pick how fast customers pay. Watch the cash move.

A company can make a profit and still run out of cash if customers pay slowly. Pick how many days customers take to pay, and see how much cash gets stuck with them.

THE COMPANY Sales: ₹365 crore a year, so about ₹1 crore a day. Profit this year: ₹50 crore. Last year customers paid in 30 days.
Days customers take to pay3045607590
Every extra day stuck with customers is ₹1 crore you cannot use.
CASH WITH CUSTOMERS ₹30 cr₹45 cr₹60 cr₹75 cr₹90 cr money owed to you
CASH LEFT THIS YEAR ₹50 cr₹35 cr₹20 cr₹5 cr−₹10 cr profit minus the extra cash stuck
30 days × ₹1 crore = ₹30 crore owed; no change from last year, so all ₹50 crore profit is cash.45 days × ₹1 crore = ₹45 crore owed; ₹15 crore more stuck, so ₹50 − ₹15 = ₹35 crore cash.60 days × ₹1 crore = ₹60 crore owed; ₹30 crore more stuck, so ₹50 − ₹30 = ₹20 crore cash.75 days × ₹1 crore = ₹75 crore owed; ₹45 crore more stuck, so ₹50 − ₹45 = ₹5 crore cash.90 days × ₹1 crore = ₹90 crore owed; ₹60 crore more stuck, so ₹50 − ₹60 = −₹10 crore.
✓ HealthyProfit turns into cash. The business can pay its bills easily.
✓ Fine, but watch itStill positive, but customers are slowing. Ask why before it grows.
! Profit is outrunning cashMost of the profit is sitting with customers. The board will ask about this.
! Nearly out of cashA ₹50 crore profit and almost no cash. One late payment could cause trouble.
! Profitable and short of cashThe company made money and still has to borrow. This is how growing firms get into trouble.

Make a call. See the miss. Fix the logic.

The simulations you run

You make a real call in a finance team, see where it goes wrong, then fix it. Here are three of them.

Profit this month ₹12L Missing costs added back

Two missing costs

The month closed without two costs that belong in it. Find them and see what profit really was.

Open simulation →
Why the result missed plan
Market conditions
Lower prices
show the bridge

“Market conditions”

The commentary blames the market. Break the gap into price, volume and cost to find the real cause.

Open simulation →
Systems reporting revenue
Sales disagrees
Billing disagrees
Ledger disagrees
Bank disagrees

Three systems, three numbers

Three systems give three different revenue figures. Work out which one is right and why.

TRY ONE · NO SIGN-UP

Profit up, cash down?

WEEK 3 · WHERE THE CASH WENT

A company made ₹10 crore profit this year. Over the same year, customers started paying later, so the money they owe went up by ₹14 crore. Ignoring everything else, what happened to cash?

Right call. Not quite.

The company earned ₹10 crore but ₹14 crore more is now sitting with customers instead of in the bank. ₹10 crore minus ₹14 crore is a fall of ₹4 crore. Profit is what you earned; cash is what you actually have. Telling these apart is the first thing every finance team needs from you.

Milestone preview

Three graded milestones and a capstone. Each one is real work you can show.

GRADED

Five ways you
actually learn

Every week follows the same simple loop: learn an idea, try it straight away, use it to make a decision, review it, then show you can do it.

ASK THE DESK

What learners ask before they join.

FMFin Maverickquestion 01 of 05

Do I need a finance background?

No. Week 1 starts from zero: what happens at month end and where the numbers come from. If you are comfortable with percentages and a basic spreadsheet, the bootcamp teaches everything else.

FMFin Maverickquestion 02 of 05

How much time does it take each week?

Plan a few focused hours each week. Lessons are short and recorded, so you can fit them around college or work.

FMFin Maverickquestion 03 of 05

Is it live or recorded?

Fully self-paced. Lessons, actions, simulations and milestones are all on demand, so you learn when it suits you and replay anything as often as you need.

FMFin Maverickquestion 04 of 05

What do I walk out with?

Work you can walk through in an interview: a closed month, a three-statement model, a cash forecast, a budget, a variance bridge and a monthly pack. Strong work also earns a certificate of appreciation or a letter of recommendation.

FMFin Maverickquestion 05 of 05

Will this get me a job?

No course can promise that. What it gives you is work you can show and the answers to the questions finance teams actually ask. That is what gets you through the interview.
