Is the spelling cash flow, cash-flow or cashflow? - Australian spelling

If you refer to Wiktionary where all variations based on worldwide usage are listed, you could be excused for being confused. The Australian Oxford dictionary only lists cash flow as a noun. The latest edition of the Macquarie dictionary lists cash flow as a noun and cashflow as the verb.

In general, if according to the Macquarie dictionary definition you’re referring to, 'the amount of cash generated by a company', or 'the overall pattern of income and expenditure of a company, organisation, or person, and the resulting availability of funds at any given time', then the spelling would be cash flow.
