The Balance Sheet

Cash Flows Cash flows are divided into three categories • Financing activities • Investing Activities • Operating activities

Financing Activities • Business organizations receive their resources primarily from creditors and owners. • Cash flow from financing activities comes from any transaction, other than the payment of interest, between an organization and its creditors or its owners.

Investing Activities

Operating Activities

• The acquisition or disposition of resources to be used to produce profits are called investing activities activities. • Cash flow from investing activities comes from any transaction used to acquire or dispose of long term assets.

• The use of resources for the purpose of producing profits is called operating activities. activities • Cash flow from operating activities comes from any transaction used in the determination of net income.

The Cash Flow Statement

The Input/Output Formula

• The cash flow statement has three sections corresponding to the categories of cash flows • Preparation of the cash flow statement is by one of two methods: The Direct Method The Indirect Method • The entire difference between these two methods occurs in the cash from operations section

All accounts have an input/output formula which may be stated generically i ll as follows: f ll Beginning Balance + Things added - Things deducted = Ending balance

The Input/Output Formula

The Indirect Method

• In accounting problem solving the task is to know the “things” added and deducted • You will generally know three of the four elements and must solve for the fourth • In cash flow analysis we seek items which simultaneously affect cash

• Analyze all long term asset, long term liability and owners’ equity accounts utilizing ili i the h input i / output formula • Adjust net income to cash from operations

Adjustments for the Indirect Method Net Income + Depreciation - Increases in Current Assets + Decreases in Current Assets + Increases in Current Liabilities - Decreases in Current Liabilities = Cash Flow from Operating Activities
