Cash Flow Statement
 Provides relevant information about
 A) Cash Receipts & (cash inflow)
 B) Cash Payments (cash outflow)
 of an enterprise during a period.
 Information about an enterprise’s
cash flows is useful in assessing the
enterprise’s liquidity, financial
flexibility, profitability and risk.
Why need of cash flow statement
 B/S provides information of assets &
liabilities at a point of time (at a
particular date) but does not explain
changes during period.
 P & L A/c provides information about
an enterprise’s financial performance
during a period, but because
earnings are measured by accrual
accounting, it does not show the
cash generated through its
operations.
 The downturn in the economy in
recent years has led to higher
company failures.
 The ability of company to meet its
obligations, especially in the short
term, is of paramount importance.
 Investors and bankers pay greater
attention to Company’s liquidity,
financial flexibility, cash conversion
cycle and risk besides profitability.
Operating Activities of non-financial
enterprises
 Firms engaged in providing goods and
services
 Operating Activities involve producing and
delivering goods and providing services.
 Cash inflows from operating activities:
 Exam : cash sales of goods and services;
 advances from customers;
 collections of debtors.
Cash Outflows from Operating
Activities
 Payments to suppliers for materials
and services;
 Payments to employees for services;
 Payments to Govt. for taxes and
duties
Investing Activities
 These involve making and collecting loans,
acquiring and disposing of debt and equity
instruments, and fixed assets.
 Cash inflows from investing activities
 Sales of fixed assets;
 Collections of loans;
 Sales of shares and bonds of other companies;
 Interest and dividends recd on loans and invest.
Cash Outflows from Investing
Activities
 Payments (including advance or
down payments) to buy fixed assets;
 Disbursements of loans;
 Payments to buy shares and bonds of
other companies / enterprises.
Financing Activities
 These activities involve –
 Obtaining resources from owners and
providing them return on their
investment,
 Borrowing money and repaying
amounts borrowed and
 Obtaining and paying for other
resources obtained from long-term
creditors.
Cash inflows / outflows from
financing activities
 Cash inflows –
 Proceeds from issuing shares and bonds;
 Proceeds from loans.
 Cash outflows –
 Payments to buy back or redeem own
shares;
 Principal payments of bonds and loans;
 Payments of interest;
 Payments of dividends.
Non-cash investing and financing
activities
 These are transactions which affect
assets or liabilities but do not result in
cash inflows or outflows –
 E.g. converting debt into equity;
 Acquiring assets by assuming directly
related liabilities such as purchasing a
building incurring a mortgage to the
seller
 Obtaining an asset by entering into a
hire purchase or a finance lease;
 Exchanging non-cash assets or liabilities
for other non-cash assets or liabilities.
 Although non-cash transactions do not
result in cash inflows or outflows in the
period in which they occur, they generally
have a significant effect on the
prospective cash flows of a company. As
such this information should be given as
foot note or in schedule to the cash flow
statement.

Transferred to Balance
Sheet
 We start with Trial Balance
 Give double-entry effect to all adjustments
 Take some of Trial balance items to trading
and Profit & Loss A/c
 Take result of P & L A/c to Balance Sheet
 Take rest of items of Trial Balance to Balance
Sheet
 Balance Sheet has to tally.
 Asset side should be equal to Liability
side.
 Utilization of Funds (Assets) should
be equal to Sources of Funds
(Liabilities).
Treatment of Adjustments for
expenses and incomes in B/S
 Outstanding exp. show on Liability side
 Prepaid expenses show on Assets side
 Income recd in advance – Liability side
 Income earned but not recd, and income
accrued but not due – show on Asset
side
 Fixed Assets are recorded at cost minus
Depreciation
 Closing Stock to record at cost price or
market price whichever is less.
 Trading A/c reflects gross profit or loss
arising out of trading and manufacturing
operations.
 Profit & Loss A/c reflects the net profit or
loss of the business after duly accounting
for all administrative and selling expenses
 Profit & Loss Appropriation A/c reflects
various appropriations made out of
disposable profits like dividends, transfer
to reserves etc.
Capital, Revenue and Deferred
Expenditure
 Cost of air-conditioning the office of
the General Manager –
 This is capital expenditure because the
benefit of this expenditure will be
available for a number of years. In any
case, the machine installed will be
there and can be disposed of
whenever desired.
 Cost of overhauling and painting a
secondhand truck newly purchased –
 When a secondhand machine is
purchased, all expenditure incurred in the
beginning to make it fit for working is
treated as capital expenditure. The value
of machine is increased by the amount
spent. Therefore, the cost of overhauling
and painting the truck is capital
expenses.
 Cost of the annual taxes and
insurance premium paid on the truck

 Annual taxes and annual premium
paid on the truck are revenue
expenditure because they do not add
to the value of the truck and their
benefit will be exhausted within a
year.
 Wages paid to workers for
installation of machinery –
 This is capital expenditure because it
is necessary to put the machine in
working condition.
 Cost of making more exits in a
cinema hall under orders of the
Government –
 Making more exits in a cinema hall
does not increase the capacity of the
hall and, therefore, it should be
treated as revenue expenditure.
 Cost of re-decorating a cinema hall –
 Cost of re-decorating a cinema hall is
not capital expenditure because it
does not add to the capacity of the
hall. But the cost is fairly heavy and
the benefit will be there for a number
of years. Therefore the cost should be
treated as Deferred revenue
expenditure.
 Cost of putting a gallery in a theatre
hall –
 When a new gallery is put up, it will
increase the number of seats in the
hall thereby increasing capacity of
the hall. Therefore, this cost should
be treated as capital expenditure.
 Cost of acquiring the goodwill of an
old firm –
 This is capital expenditure because
the use of that firm’s name will
benefit the purchaser for a long time.
 Cost of heavy advertisement for a
new product and removal of works to
a new and better site –
 The expenditure is heavy but not of
capital nature because no new asset
is acquired. But since the benefit of
the expenditure will be available for a
number of years, it should be treated
as deferred revenue expenditure.
Capital and Revenue Receipts
 Amount realized from sale of old
furniture –
 Sale of old furniture only means
conversion of one asset into another.
Therefore, it is a capital receipt.
 Amount received from a debtor
whose account was previously
written off as bad –
 This amount is to be treated as a
revenue receipt because it is not to
be refunded to the customer and the
amount was previously written off as
a loss.
 Amount of loan taken from a bank –
 The loan taken from bank is
repayable and, therefore, is a
liability. This is capital receipt.
