Ok, so apart from the money that a company may obtain through the sale of its shares to the public, the "accumulated cash" must be what can be seen in its Retained Income because that's the algebraic sum of all the bottom line net earnings to date. I'd say one would want to have seen a regular increase in that number.

And if we added the Share Capital to that number we would have the Book Value. And that, in turn, is equal to Total Assets - Total Liabilities.

And Book Value is regarded by some as the "Value" of the company because if the company stopped doing business and liquidated then the Book Value is what would be distributed to the Shareholders. However, that is on the assumption that what is liquidated is what is actually obtained by the "sale" of the Assets minus the liabilities. and that is not always the case.
