A cash sweep model has to be able to deal with mandatory debt repayments, but also accelerated debt repayments. And that means paying off your debt quicker than you have to. On screen., we've got a top figure here that says cash available for accelerated repayments is going to be 875 in the right-hand most column. Now, it's important to realize here that that cash available is already after the mandatory repayments and interest. It means those mandatory repayments and the interest figure have already been subtracted from that number, and we're now left with 875 of cash. This is going to get a little bit confusing because a few lines down, you've then got the mandatory repayment. Here, the mandatory repayment is 100, but we need to remember that that 100 has already been subtracted from that 875 of cash available for remaining accelerator repayments. Right, so I'm onto the term loan A. In the historical year, we had ending term loan A of 1,000, that's in blue. And then in the first year, that was the beginning term loan A, and we paid off 400 and another 500 to get to ending term loan A of 100. So in our now most recent year, we have beginning term loan A of 100. We then need to look at a mandatory repayment. The mandatory repayment here is going to be 100. But mandatory repayments are made but may be reduced because of prior acceleration. So imagine this, the mandatory repayment in this year might have been 400, but because we've had prior accelerated repayments in the previous year, in this case 500, that means my beginning term loan A is now 100. I don't have to make a mandatory repayment of 400 now because I only owe 100. So the mandatory repayment comes down to 100. After that, accelerated repayments are made if you have debt to B repaid and if you have cash available. Well, we've definitely got cash available. We've got 875, but all of term loan A has now been paid off. We had 100, and we've made a mandatory repayment of 100. Great. We then move on to the cash available for remaining accelerated repayments, and it's 875. In calculating the cash available, we only include the impact from the accelerated, not the mandatory payment above. So to get to this 875, what I would do is I would take the 875 from the very, very, very top, 875 in green, and then I would subtract off just the zero in green as well. I would not take off the mandatory repayment of 100. We then move on to term loan B. Now, in term loan B, we owe 850. We've got no mandatory repayment to be made, so we then move on to the accelerated repayment, but we need to be careful here. In the accelerated repayments, we need to take care not to overpay the debt too. Why might we do this? Well, it's because we've got 875 of cash available in gray. 875 for cash available, but only 850 of debt due. So just take care that you don't overpay that debt due. Lastly, a word of warning on accelerated repayments. Accelerated repayments are typically only possible for term loans, not for bonds or notes. So we have been able to make accelerated repayments here because we've got a term loan A and a term loan B.
