How do company finances work?

Companies like Uber manage their money by balancing income from services with spending on operations, staff, and investments. When Uber reallocates spending, it means shifting money from one area (like administrative overhead) to another (like developing robotaxis). This strategic financial planning aims to boost future growth and profitability.
