Cash flow is crucial for ensuring the viability of a project. It consists of a complete history of all cash disbursement, cash shortage, loans, cost of money, and all earnings received. Although significant research work has been conducted on cash flow forecast, planning, and management, the objective is constantly the maximization of profit/final cash balance, or minimization of total project cost. Moreover, cash flow forecasting needs to be effective and fast. The paper develops multiple-objective cash flow planning model – Pareto optimality efficiency network model, which considers typical banking instruments, the constraints of the financial market, the budget constraints, and …
