In a business, the cash outflows may be a term that is thrown around. It refers to the amount of money that is taken out of the business. Usually, this is done to pay for products to sell or raw materials to make the products with.

It could also include salaries that have to be paid to the workers, supplies, maintenance as well as dividends that have to be paid to the stockholders. The cash outflows refers to everything monetarily that is spent or released from the business.
