Quick comparison
Three choices, one clear difference
Possible gap = existing payment gap + purchase amount − customer advance received.
ChoiceCustomer advancePossible total gap
A PHP 210,000 advance funds the purchase only. A full PHP 320,000 order payment reduces the default projected gap to about PHP 5,000, assuming the PHP 120,000 expected collections arrive.
Clario’s current view
Fund the purchase and protect the business separately.
A customer advance can cover the stock purchase, but existing payroll, rent, supplier, and utility obligations remain a separate cash responsibility.
