The Operating Cash Flow figure can be found in the top section of the Statement of Cash Flows; this number is simply the total cash flows of the firm for a given period. Whereas the Net Cash Flow figure takes into account deductions for that period, such as capital expenditure, etc. Therefore this number will generally be smaller than the total operating cash flows. The principle is somewhat similar to Total Income and Gross Profit of a firm, e.g: Total Income is the total revenues receieved by a firm during a given period, and Gross Profit is the amount remaining after cost of sales for that period has been dedcuted)
Answer:The cash flow statement gives a breakdown in operating, investing and financing activities, which add up to the change in cash over the period. Free cash flow is the sum of operating cash flow and investing cash flow. This is generally positive for a 'cash cow' (operating cash flows exceeding the investments), and negative for a growth firm (investments exceeding the cash generated by operations).
The statement of cash flows is the summary of the major cash receipts and and cash payments for a period such as a month or year. The statement of cash flows reports a firm's major cash inflows and outflows for a period. It provides useful information about a firm's ability to generate cash from operations, maintain and expand its operating capacity, meet its financial obligations, and pay dividends.
A firm's sales may expand as a result of increase in orders, which requires the firm to increase its inventory by purchasing raw material whose payments must be made prior to cash collection from its customers. Thus, the firm has to use either its retained earnings or take on debt to finance the expansion which may result to a negative cash flow

Cash forecast is the estimate of the timing and amounts of cash inflows and outflows over a specific period (usually one year). A cash flow forecast shows if a firm needs to borrow, how much, when, and how it will repay the loan. Also called cash flow budget or cash flow projection.
