COLGATE’S OPERATING CASH FLOWS:
INDIRECT METHOD
COLGATE’S CASH FLOWS: SUMMARY
• Overall, $323 million net increase in cash over three years, from $555
million at the beginning of 2009 to $878 million at the end of 2011.
• Colgate consistently obtains its cash inflow from operating activities
and uses cash in investing and financing activities—a typical profile for
a mature company.
• Colgate’s operating cash flow exceeded net income in every year—a
desirable profile for a mature company.
• In every year, Colgate’s cash from operations was more than enough
to cover its capital expenditures.
• The amount of dividends paid has steadily increased over the past
three years.
• Amount of operating cash after paying for capital expenditures was
more than enough to cover the dividend payments.
• In summary, Colgate’s cash flows represent a positive profile.

INDIRECT VS. DIRECT METHOD FOR
PRESENTING OPERATING CASH FLOWS
Indirect method
• Begins with net income and
adjusts to operating cash flows.
• Arguments for:
- Clearly shows the reasons for
differences between net
income and operating cash
flows.
- Mirrors forecasting approach
that begins with forecast of
income, then derives cash
flows.
INDIRECT VS. DIRECT METHOD FOR
PRESENTING OPERATING CASH FLOWS
Direct method
Indirect method
• Shows each cash inflow and
outflow related to receipts and
disbursements.
• IFRS permit.
• Arguments for:
• Used by the majority of
companies, whether
reporting under IFRS or
U.S. GAAP.
• U.S. GAAP permit.
- Provides information on the
specific sources of operating
cash receipts and payments.
• U.S. GAAP encourage, but
requires a reconciliation of
net income to cash flow from
operating activities.
- Does not net.

PREPARATION OF THE STATEMENT OF
CASH FLOWS: STEPS
EXAMPLE
•
Step 1. Determine the change in cash.
A new company has the following transactions:
•
Step 2. Determine the net cash flow from operating activities.
Use both the current year's income statement and information on
current assets and liabilities from the comparative balance sheets.
• Sells stock for $100.
•
Step 3. Determine net cash flows from investing and financing
activities. Examine all other changes in the balance sheet
accounts.
•
Step 4. Include summary of net increase (decrease) in cash,
cash at beginning, and cash at end.
•
Step 5. Disclose any significant noncash transactions
separately at the bottom of the statement.

• Buys a building for $50. Its primary line of business is selling
a service, so it has no COGS (cost of goods sold) and no
inventory.
• Makes credit sales of $100, and subsequently collects $90.
• Accrues SG&A (selling, general, and administrative)
expense of $40, and subsequently pays cash of $25.
• Records depreciation expense of $10.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES, BEGINNING WITH NET
INCOME FOR THE INDIRECT METHOD

comparative balance sheets. Change was $115.

INVESTING CASH FLOWS
• Determine investing cash flows by examining changes in
long-term assets. In this example, we have only PP&E.
• Beginning PP&E + Purchases – Dispositions = Ending
PP&E
• Ending PP&E – Beginning PP&E = Purchases –
Dispositions (i.e., investing cash flows)
Examine all other changes in the balance sheet accounts.

STEP 3. DETERMINE NET CASH FLOWS FROM
INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES
FINANCING CASH FLOWS
• Determine financing cash flows by examining changes in debt
and equity accounts. In this example, we have only common
stock.
Examine all other changes in the balance sheet accounts.
• Beginning stock + Issuances – Repurchases = Ending stock
• Ending stock – Beginning stock = Issuances – Repurchases
• Stock account increased by $100, indicating cash was raised by
issuing stock.
• We also know this from the transaction list at the beginning of
the example.

SUMMARY
• The cash flow statement provides information about a company’s cash
receipts and cash payments during an accounting period.
What It Measures
Financial risk and financial
leverage
Ability to meet interest
obligations
Ability to acquire assets
with operating cash flows
Ability to pay debts with
operating cash flows
Ability to pay dividends
with operating cash flows
Ability to acquire assets,
pay debts, and make
distributions to owners
• Cash flows are categorized as operating, investing, and financing.
• Compared with U.S. GAAP, IFRS provide companies with more
choices in classifying some cash flow items as operating, investing, or
financing activities.
• The operating activities section of the statement of cash flows can be
presented using the direct method or the indirect method.
• Two approaches to developing common-size cash flow statements are
the total cash inflows/total cash outflows method and the percentage of
net revenues method.
• Cash flow ratios measure a company’s profitability, performance, and
financial strength.
