1.2 - The existence and <strong>the</strong> importance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> "float".<br />
We understand, from what has just been said, that <strong>the</strong> "float" represents all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> funds in transit. They are indeed<br />
at <strong>the</strong> company, but cannot be used because <strong>the</strong>y are temporarily stuck in <strong>the</strong> banking system during <strong>the</strong> recovery<br />
process.<br />
Figure n° 4, shows <strong>the</strong> formation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> "float".<br />
The amount <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> "float" can be calculated in <strong>the</strong> following way; ei<strong>the</strong>r:<br />
F <strong>the</strong> amount <strong>of</strong> float,<br />
T <strong>the</strong> recovery time means (for <strong>the</strong> debtor or creditor) in days,<br />
CA annual turnover,<br />
F = T x (CA / 365)<br />
In percentage <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Turnover:<br />
F = (T / 365) x 100<br />
For example, if <strong>the</strong> time <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> average recovering is up to 8 days:<br />
F = (8 / 365) x 100<br />
Equals to 2.19 % <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Turnover.<br />
