Executive Dashboard Features

• ✔ Automated Cash Runway: The sheet calculates exactly how many months of "runway" your business has based on current liquid assets and average monthly expenses.
• ✔ Visual Expense Donut Charts: Stop squinting at rows of numbers. Instantly see what percentage of your income is going toward overhead versus growth.
• ✔ Dynamic Month Filtering: Use the built-in dropdown to toggle between monthly views or an "All-Time" financial summary.

How to Use This Template for Growth

To get the most out of your Google Sheets Budget, we recommend a three-step weekly ritual:

1. The Transaction Log: Record every income stream and expense line item. Use the "Category" dropdown to ensure your charts update accurately.
2. Budget vs. Actual Analysis: Check your sparklines. If a category is nearing 90% of your target budget, the visual indicators will warn you before you overspend.
3. The Profit Review: At the end of the month, review your Net Profit card. If your "Burn Rate" is increasing while revenue stays flat, it's time to audit your subscriptions.
