Significant Noncash Activities... 1. Issuance of common stock to purchase assets. 2. Conversion of bonds into common stock. 3. Issuance of debt to purchase assets. 4. Exchanges of plant assets. For IFRS, non cash items must be reported in notes. Classification of Cash Flows Accrual Basis versus Cash Basis of Accounting Accrual Basis – Recognizes Revenues at the time the earnings process is complete, and expenses at the time they are incurred, regardless of cash flow. Cash Basis– Recognizes Revenues when the Cash is Received, and Expenses at the time the Cash is Paid. Financial Statements are prepared using the Accrual Basis of Accounting The Statement of Cash Flows – Requires that the Accrual Basis be converted to the Cash Basis of Accounting. This Can be Done either: Directly – by examining each item on the Income Statement, or Indirectly – By Adjusting Net Income for the changes in the Non-Cash Balance Sheet Accounts. Why Report the Causes of Changes in Cash? Because investors, creditors, and other interested parties want to know what is happening to a company’s most liquid asset, CASH Statement of Cash Flows Helps Users Evaluate 1. Future cash flows? 2. Pay Dividends and meet obligations? 3. Reasons for differences between net income and net cash provided (used) by operating activities 4. What happened in investing and financing? Usefulness and Format Format of the Statement of Cash Flows Order of Presentation: 1. Operating activities. 2. Investing activities. 3. Financing activities. The cash flows from operating activities section always appears first, followed by the investing and financing sections.

Sources of Information for the Statement of Cash Flows Comparative balance sheet Current income statement Additional information Small EXAMPLE…. Statement Of Cash Flows Indirect Method The transactions of Joe’s Repair Company for the year ended 2000 are used to illustrate the preparation of a statement of cash flows . Joe’s Repair Company started in January 1, 2000, when it issued 50,000 shares of $1 par value common stock for $50,000 cash. The company rented its office space and furniture and performed consulting services throughout the first year. Steps in Preparing Statement of Cash Flows STEP #1 Determine the NET CHANGE in CASH Increase? Decrease? $34,000 - 0 = $34,000 INCREASE JOE’S Repair COMPANY Comparative Balance Sheet December 31, 2000 Assets Cash Accounts receivable Equipment Total Liabilities and stockholders’ equity Accounts payable Common stock Retained earnings Total Dec. 31, 2000 Change Increase/Decrease $34,000 30,000 Jan. 1, 2000 $0 0 10,000 $74,000 0 $0 10,000 increase $4,000 50,000 20,000 $0 0 0 $4,000 increase 50,000 increase 20,000 increase $74,000 $0 $34,000 increase 30,000 increase Income Statement and Additional Information COMPUTER SERVICES COMPANY Income Statement For the Year Ended December 31, 2000 Revenues Operating expenses Income before income taxes Income tax expense Net income $85,000 40,000 45,000 10,000 $35,000 Additional Information: (a) Examination of selected data indicates that a dividend of $15,000 was declared and paid during the year. (b) The equipment was purchased at the end of 2000. No depreciation was taken in 2000. Steps in Preparing Statement of Cash Flows STEP #2 Determine the NET CHANGE PROVIDED by Operating Activities You must analyze the Income Statement and some of the Balance Sheet net changes (current assets and liabilities) to convert Net Income (accrual) to a cash basis. (You might need additional information also). Determine Net Cash Provided/Used Operating Activities By Adjust net income for items that did not affect cash. Net income must be converted because earned revenues may include credit sales that have not been collected in cash and expenses incurred that may not have been paid in cash. Determine Net Cash Provided/Used By Operating Activities Receivables, payables, prepayments, and inventories must be analyzed for their effects on cash. Determine Net Cash Provided/Used By Operating Activities Joe’s Repair Company (JRC) had revenues of $85,000 in its first year of operations. However, JRP collected only $55,000 in cash. Accrual basis revenue was $85,000, cash basis revenue would be $55,000. The increase in accounts receivable of $30,000 must be deducted from net income. (If accounts receivable decrease, the decrease must be added to net income). Determine Net Cash Provided/Used Operating Activities (con’t) By Accounts payable - When accounts payable increase during a year, operating expenses are higher (accrual) than they are on a cash basis. For JRP, operating expenses reported in the income statement were $40,000. Since Accounts Payable increased $4,000, $36,000 ($40,000 – $4,000) of the expenses were paid in cash. So. . . . an increase in accounts payable must be added to net income, (a decrease subtracted).

Determine Net Cash Provided/Used Investing and Financing Activities By No data are given for the increases in Equipment of $10,000 and Common Stock of $50,000. Assume any differences involve cash. The increase in equipment is from a purchase of equipment for $10,000 cash. This purchase is reported as a cash outflow in the investing activities section. The increase of common stock results from the issuance of common stock for $50,000 cash. It is reported as an inflow of cash in the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows. Determine Net Cash Provided/Used Investing and Financing Activities Reasons for the increase of $20,000 in the Retained Earnings. Net income increased retained earnings by $35,000.
