Cashculator is a super comprehensive app for Macs that allows you to track your cashflow in all sorts of different ways.
If you're financially inept, the idea of managing your finances and planning for future expenses might seem incredibly intimidating. We all know how important it is to do just that though if you want to make sure you're saving and spending properly each month.
Cashculator presents a relatively complete way to manage your finances. With graphs, spreadsheets, and a myriad of other great features, Cashculator is really comprehensive in how it allows you to manage your cashflow. Cashculator comes with four main screens: income, expenses, reconcile, and compare. The first two are relatively self-explanatory, measuring your monthly income sources and how much you spend. Reconcile will make sense to anyone who's taken a basic course in accounting. It simply allows you to make sure what you have in your account matches up with what you've been spending.
Cashculator's compare screen is the most interesting and useful though. This screen allows you to create what-if financial scenarios and see how far your money will take you in each one. The Cashculator compare screen also tracks the overall impact the scenario will have on your liquid assets, making it an incredibly useful feature.
The only real negative Cashculator has is that it can be a little intimidating to learn some of the more advanced features. Thankfully, Cashculator comes complete with a very useful help wizard, as well as a comprehensive PDF instruction manual. If you take the time to go through it, the app's usability will become even clearer.
Whether you're accounting savvy or otherwise, Cashculator will have you managing your finances with impressive finesse.
