Burn rate is the monthly rate at which your business spends cash beyond what it brings in. Divide your total cash reserves by your monthly burn rate to calculate runway, the number of months before you run out of money. A burn rate above 15-20% of monthly revenue is a warning sign for most small businesses outside of an intentional growth phase.
