Statement of Cash Flows- First Approach

1. Statement of Cash Flows- First Approach

2. Classification of Cash Flows Operations -- cash flows related to selling goods and services; that is, the principle business of the firm. Investing -- cash flows related to the acquisition or sale of noncurrent assets. Financing -- long term and short term cash flows related to liabilities and owners’ equity; dividends are a financing cash outflow.

3. What is Cash? • Cash includes cash and cash equivalents • Cash equivalents: • treasury bills maturing in 90 days or less; • investment funds; • foreign currency on hand; • checking account and free savings account

4. Cash flow from operating activities • Examples • cash received from customers through sale of goods or services performed; • cash received from non-operating activities such as dividends from investments, interest revenue, commissions, and fees; • cash payments to suppliers or employees; • cash payments for taxes and other expenses; In effect, the income statement is changed from accrual basis to cash basis

5. Investing Activities Examples of investing activities include: • cash payments to acquire property, plant, and equipment (PPE), other tangible or intangible assets, and other long-term assets; and sale of such assets • loans extended to other companies; and collection of such loans;

6. Financing Activities Examples of financing activities are : • cash received from issuing share capital; • cash proceeds from issuing bonds, loans, notes, mortgages and other short or long-term borrowings; • cash repayment of loans and other borrowings; and • cash payments to shareholders as dividends.

7. Classification of Cash in-flows and outflows To wages salary payments To suppliers for purchases of inventories To other operating expenses To interest payments To tax payments To advance payments to suppliers From sales of goods and services to customers From receipt of customer advances From receipt of interest revenue or dividends or rent revenue or similar revenue items Operating Activities From sale of PPE and other long-term assets From collection of loans To purchase PPE and other long-term assets To make loans and to collect such loans Investing Activities From sale of common or preferred stock From issuance of short or long term debt Financing Activities To repay debt To pay dividends

8. Format of the Cash Flow Statement Name of the Company Cash Flow Statement For the period … Cash from operating activities A Cash from investing activities B Cash from financing activities C Net Change in Cash D = (A+B+C) increase or (decrease) + Beginning Cash balance CB, from the beginning balance sheet Ending Cash balance =CB + D should equal to ending cash balance in the ending balance sheet Non-cash Investing and Financing Activities

9. Determination of Cash Flows From Operating Activities Direct Method Income Statement items are converted to cash flows individually Indirect Method Net income or loss is adjusted for accruals such as accounts receivable and payable, and for non-cash expenses such as depreciation reconciliation of the accrual based and cash based accounting

10. Comparison of Methods • Direct method of presentation calculates cash flow from operations by subtracting cash disbursements to supplies, employees, and others from cash receipts from customers. • The indirect method calculates cash flow from operations by adjusting net income for non-cash revenues and expenses. • Most firms present their cash flows using the indirect method. Only operating activities section is different between the methods, investing and financing sections are the same.

11. How to prepare cash flow statement • Firms could prepare their own cash flow statement directly from the cash account. • however, we need two consecutive balance sheets and the income statement that covers the period between the two balance sheets

12. Algebraic Formulation* Assets = Liabilities + Shareholders’ Equity or A = L + SHE Assets are either cash (C) or not (Non-Cash) Thus reorganizing C + Non Cash Assets (NCA) = L + SE  C +  NCA =  L +  SE Where  means the change in the balance of the item from the previous period. Solving for change in cash:  C =  L +  SE -  NCA Based on Stickney and Weil, 10th ed. Financial Accounting Slides http://www.swlearning.com/accounting/stickney/tenth_edition/stickney.html

13. Algebraic Formulation (Cont.)  C =  L +  SE -  NCA The change in cash,  C, is the increase or decrease in the cash account. This amount must equal changes in liabilities plus changes in shareholders’ equity minus changes in assets other than cash. Thus, we can identify the causes in the change in the cash account by studying the changes in non-cash accounts.

14. INCREASE DECREASE Increase in non-cash assets shows that cash was spent, so cash outflow. Decrease in non-cash assets shows that they provided cash so cash inflow. Assets Increase in liabilities cash savings; increase in SHE cash received; so cash inflow Decrease in liabilities or SHE shows cash paid; so cash outflow Liabilities and Shareholders’ equity Indirect Method – cash flow from operations Adjusting Net Income of the period (accrual) to cash basis income

15. Indirect Method- operating activities- Adjustments to net income Net income + noncash expenses: depreciation, amortization, uncollectible account expense,etc + loss on sale of asset + increases in current liabilities + decreases in current assets - gain on sale of asset - decrease in current liabilities • increase in current assets = Cashflow from operating activities

16. Noncash Expenses • Noncash expenses, such as depreciation expense, are added back – because they were deducted to measure net income but did not require any cash payment in the current period • They are not truly sources of cash, even though they are associated with cash inflows but reversal of an accrued expense
