A worked example

What this looks like for a startup

A seed-stage SaaS business does not need a bigger P&L pack. It needs three numbers its board will ask for, calculated the same way every month.

Runway calculated consistently
Burn on a three-month average rather than last month's spike, so the number does not swing with a single annual invoice.
Deferred revenue handled properly
Annual contracts recognised across the term, so MRR and cash are never confused with each other.
Board pack that does not change shape
The same lines in the same order every month, so trends are readable at a glance.
