STRAMAN TRADING LTD.

Staterment of Cash Flows

For the year ended 31 January 2016

Kirby claims that Straman's statement of cash flows is an excellent example of a superb first year, with cash increasing P125,000. Jana replies that it was not a superb first year---but rather, that the year was an operating failure. She says that the statement was incorrectly presented and that P125,000 is not the actual increase in cash. The cash balance at the beginning of the year was P140,000.
