Definition, Purpose and Benefits of Cash Flow in Company Financial Records
Indirect method
The first way is to use the indirect method. This method is more focused on the difference
between net income and cash flows from operating activities. Because in determining cash
flows related to operational activities, what is calculated is not cash but the effect of
transactions, investment expenses, and elements of income based on the financial balance
sheet and also the profit and loss statement.
Direct method
In the direct method, the report will first be grouped into three parts, namely investment,
operations, and financing. Furthermore, it will still be divided into two for each of these
activities, namely expenditure and income. After that, it also still has to be divided again
based on what kind of activities on income and expenses. It should be understood that
reports made based on the direct method tend to be easy to understand so that readers can
understand the source of the funds and what the funds are for.
