How does a second position merchant cash advance work?
For a restaurant, the question is simple: after the first debit, do the day's bank deposits still cover a second one and the bills?
What does the review cover?
With monthly bank deposits of $95,000 in the example, funders check what the account can carry once the first debit clears.
How long do both debits overlap?
Until the first advance finishes. In the meantime, the account carries $800 a day, so the review checks that deposits cover it.
