STAROOT VACANCIES Editor’s pick of the week:
He stressed the need to do more, saying sharper focus, better implementation and greater urgency were required.
Galeshewe – Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa says South Africa’s youth must be placed at the centre of economic transformation, which is the focus of the new term of government.
“One of the most important factors contributing to youth unemployment is the relatively low levels of skills among young people. This is perhaps the most devastating aspect of our apartheid inheritance. “We need to improve the prospects for today’s youth, we need to develop the skills that the country needs now,” he said. The Deputy President announced that the intake of students for post-school education will be massively expanded over the next five years, with the aim of enrolling the majority of youth aged 18 to 23.
“Government will direct contractors to help increase the number of engineers and artisans, project managers, machine operators and financial managers. State-owned enterprises will need to increase the num“… economic transformation must and will ber of training opportunities offered to take centre stage during this new term of young South Africans. government.

President Jacob Zuma is expected to outline the Programme of Action for the new administration on Tuesday during his State of the Nation Address.
Deputy President Ramaphosa said government will continue to monitor its implementation to ensure that it does not result in the displacement of other workers.
On National Youth Day, Deputy President Ramaphosa insisted that if the country can effectively address youth unemployment, not only will it lift millions of South Africans out of poverty, but it will also place the economy on a trajectory of sustainable, inclusive growth.
A major driver of economic growth over the next five years and beyond, he said, is government’s investment in infrastructure development.
“Over the last five years, we have invested R1 trillion in infrastructure. Over the next five years we expect to invest even more. This year’s Youth Day, which commemo- This programme has benefits that stretch rates the 1976 Soweto Uprisings, is being across the economy. It is creating jobs, deheld under the theme: “Youth Moving veloping skills and stimulating manufacturing.” South Africa Forward”. there is a need to focus on special measures to ensure that South Africa’s youth have access to training, work experience, jobs and entrepreneurial opportunities. Progress has been made in a number “Nearly half of the six million work opportunities created through public works and community work programmes were for young people. In the last five years, R2.7 billion has been set aside for youth entrepreneurship finance and support. The amount of student bursaries has doubled,” the Deputy President highlighted.
He said at least 60% of jobs in new infrastructure projects have been set aside for young people. “This will be combined with improved training by FET colleges to ensure that there are enough young people with the necessary skills.” The Deputy President added that youth unemployment must be on the agenda of every government department, every state agency, every corporate and every institution of learning. – SAnews.gov.za

GEP SUPPORTS LOCAL SMME’S
T
he Gauteng Enterprise Propeller (GEP) earlier in the month announced that as from 01 May 2016 all applications for financial and non-financial support will no longer be assessed at the regional offices, but at its head office in Johannesburg. This move is geared towards providing equitable support to clients. In 2015 GEP identified barriers that derailed its mandate of supporting small businesses and co-operatives in Gauteng. This affected prospects of SMMEs contributing meaningfully to the provincial economy, but was further exacerbated by poor turnaround times for addressing queries as well as a lack of proper systems to trace applications. GEP has since developed various tactics in order to change negative perceptions and regain public confidence. The agency will no longer accept applications for approval after the closure of a call for proposals. In Addition, all proposals received through the public process will receive an acknowledgment letter within 14 days after the closing date. Decisions related to the outcome of the assessment will be communicated with applicants within six weeks post the last letter. SMMES and cooperatives will, however, continue to receive business advisory support at the regional offices. “Applications for financial and non-financial products will proceed to be vetted and assessed for viability. However, no approvals will be done at the regional offices,” said the agency in a written statement. To gain public confidence and change perceptions about GEP’s failure to assist SMMEs, the following tactics have been adopted: Regional Offices: SMME’s and Cooperatives will continue to receive business advisory support from our Professional Information Officers. Applications for financial and none financial products will proceed to be vetted and assessed for viability. However, NO APPROVALS will be done at the Regional Offices. The support in the form of information requirements to comply with applications, business plans, and related will continue to be provided in the Regional Offices. GEP will no longer accept applications for approval outside the Public Process, that is, after the closure of a call for proposals. Those submitted outside this period will be registered, and only processed in the next round of call for proposal. All proposals received through the public process will receive an acknowledgement letter within 14 days after the closing date. Decisions related to the outcome of the assessments will be sent to all applicants within 6 weeks post the last letter. Ad-Hoc: GEP will process and adjudicate on adhoc proposals under the following conditions: The proponent requires cash flow to service a contract New accreditation requirement to increase revenue i.e. SABS, Health, etc. Expansion as a result of growth of market GEP, an agency of the Gauteng Department of Economic Development, provides financial and non-financial support to SMMEs and cooperatives in the province.

FINANCES 5 Things to Know About Every Cash Flow Statement.
• Business • Banks
• Education • Money tips • Invest • Budgets • Real Estate • Career • Innovation • Economy • Stokvels • Loans
1. The cash flow statement explains the changes in a company’s cash balance. The cash flow statement is broken into three sections covering the fundamental components of every business: cash from operations, cash from investing activities, and cash from financing activities. In general, the cash from operations section deals with the cash inflows and outflows directly related to the company’s primary activity: selling a good or service. The cash from investing activities section shows how much the company spent (or made) on buying (or selling) assets such as property, equipment, or even other companies. The cash from financing activities shows the inflows and outflows of capital the company uses to fund its operations; this is where one sees the proceeds from equity offerings, for example, or payments on bonds or bank debt.
2. The cash flow statement answers the question: Is this company generating cash or using cash? Not only does it answer this question, it shows the reader what aspects of the business are generating the cash and what aspects are burning the cash. In many analytical situations, there is nothing as important as knowing its sources and uses of cash. For example, the income statement may show an increase in sales, but if a company is burning through the cash instead of retaining it, this could potentially be a sign of trouble. 3. Cash flow is not the same as profit or net income!
To
Income statements and balance sheets include non-cash expenses, depreciation often being the largest of those. But guess what? Nobody’s actually writing a check to “Depreciation.” It’s a non-cash expense, so the cash flow statement gets rid of it. This is a big reason companies might never show a dime of net income but could be spinning off millions in cash.

4. The cash flow statement doesn’t care whether this month’s cash outflows are for transactions actually associated with next month or next year.

This is somewhat of a rehash of point #3, but it’s important. One of the beautiful things about the cash flow statement is that, for the most part, it simply tracks the movement of cash. It is not as influenced by accrual accounting methods, which record expenses in the period in which they’re incurred. For example, if the accounting department cuts a check to Allstate for, say, the next six months of insurance premiums, this month’s income statement will only reflect one-sixth of the check amount each month for the next six months. This month’s cash flow statement, however, will show the full amount of the check as a cash outflow, because that’s what actually happened to the cash. The cash flow statement doesn’t care that the bill was for the next six months of insurance. It only cares that cash left the account. 5. The cash flow statement discloses the total amount of cash used to purchase assets or make other capital expenditures. As mentioned, the cash from investing activities section discloses the amount of cash involved in purchasing or divesting capital assets during a certain period. This is helpful for determining how far along a particular project may be, how much a particular acquisition “really” cost when intangible costs are considered, or how much the company got for the sale of certain assets.
