Year-to-Year Change Analysis

▪ Use both absolute and percentages


▪ Guidelines:/Limitation
▫ A meaningful percent change cannot be
calculated when one number is positive and the
other number is negative
▫ A percent change cannot be calculated when
there is no figure for the base year.
▫ When an item has value in the base year and
none in the next period, the decrease is 100%

Adjustments-Operating Activities

▪ Non cash Items: bad debts, depreciation and amortization do


not require any cash outflow in the current period.
▪ Hence we add them back to net profit to arrive at net cash
flow from operating activities.

▪ Non operating items: gains and losses on disposal of fixed


assets and investments, interest income and interest expenses
from the operating activities section to the investing or
financing activities as appropriate.

▪ Changes in working capital: we adjust net profit for
changes in working capital items like trade receivables,
inventories, prepaid expenses, and trade payables.

▪ Ex: If trade receivables increased during the current period


,cash received from customers will be less than sales reported
in the profit or loss account.

▪ Here we add if there is any decrease , similarly we deduct if


there is any increase in the amount.

▪ Depreciation –NCI- added back to profit before tax because it is a
noncash expense
▪ Loss on disposal of non-current assets –NOI- the loss is a non-
cash expense and is added back to profit before tax: the cash
proceeds on disposal will be classified as an investing activity cash
inflow
▪ Interest payable expense –NOI- added back to profit before tax
because it is not part of cash generated from operations
▪ Increase/decrease in inventory –WCI- inventory represents
purchases made in one accounting period, but which will be charged
against profit in another accounting period.
