   Feedback

   The statement of cash flows reports three types of cash flow activities, as follows: 1. Cash flows from operating activities are the cash flows from transactions that affect the net income of the company. 2. Cash flows from (used for) investing activities are the cash flows received from or used for transactions that affect investments in the noncurrent assets of the company. 3. Cash flows from (used for) financing activities are the cash flows received from or used for transactions that affect the debt and equity of the company. The indirect method reports cash flows from operating activities by beginning with net income and adjusting it for revenues and expenses that do not involve the receipt or payment of cash. A primary advantage of the indirect method is that it reconciles the differences between net income and net cash flows from operations. Calculate the increases and decreases in the current asset/liability accounts over the period. How do these increases or decreases impact the amount of cash a company has? Were there any purchases or sales of noncurrent assets during the year? If there were any sales of noncurrent assets, were these noncurrent assets sold at what the company had initially paid? Or were the assets sold for more or less than the book value? Did the company engage in any activities that affected the equity or debt in their company?
