1. Appendix B: Statement of Cash Flows

2. General Information on SCF
Required for financial statements by SFAS 95 (1987).
Primary purpose is to provide relevant information about cash receipts and cash disbursements of the company during the year.
Serves to complement the other financial statements.
Focus is on cash flows, not income.
Reconciles the balance sheet and the income statement.

3. Content of Statement of Cash Flows
Explains change in cash and cash equivalents.
Cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly liquid investments near to maturity.
Examples of cash equivalents are Treasury bills and money market funds.
Format of SCF includes the following three sections:
A. Cash flow from operating activities.
B. Cash flow from investing activities.
C. Cash flow from financing activities.

4. A. Cash Flows from Operating Activities
CF from operating activities is based on the income statement, and converts income activity to a cash basis in its presentation.
There are two formats for the presentation of CF from operating activity:
direct method: this technique shows cash received from customers and cash paid to various entities for operating activities.
indirect method: this technique starts with net income and makes adjustments to net income to convert it to a cash basis.

5. A. Cash Flows from Operating Activities
If the direct method is used, the indirect method must be presented in a supplementary schedule.
The direct method is more informative, but the vast majority of companies present only the indirect method.
FASB is considering a change to require the direct method.

6. B. Cash Flows from Investing Activities
CF from investing activities explain the changes in cash from the purchase or sale of the company’s (primarily) long-term assets.
Examples of investing activity includes:
cash paid for purchase of equipment, land, buildings, marketable securities (available-for-sale and equity), intangible assets, and most other long term assets.
cash received from sale of equipment, land, buildings, marketable securities (available-for-sale and equity), intangible assets, and most other long term assets.

7. C. Cash Flows from Financing Activities
CF from financing activities explain the changes in cash from the issue or retirement of the company’s (primarily) long-term liabilities and equity.
Examples of financing activity includes:
cash received from issue of bonds, mortgages and other long-term debt.
cash received from issue of common stock and preferred stock.
cash paid for the retirement of long-term debt.
cash paid for the repurchase of treasury stock.
cash paid for dividends.
Note that cash paid for dividends is classified as a financing activity. However, cash paid for interest is classified as an operating activity. Also, cash received for dividends and cash received for interest are both classified as operating activities.

8. A. Cash Flow from Operations: Components of Indirect method
To understand the adjustments to get from net income to CF from operations, we will classify the adjustments into 3 categories:
(1) Noncash items.
(2) Double counted gains and losses.
(3) Change in related (accrual basis) assets and liabilities
Remember: net income includes many activities that are noncash, or only partly cash.

9. (1) Indirect Method - Noncash Items
Noncash activities include
-Depreciation expense. For example:
Depreciation Expense xx
Accumulated Depreciation xx
-Amortization expense on intangible assets such as patents and goodwill.
Amortization Expense xx
Patent xx
-Bad debt expense on the estimation of uncollectibles:
Bad Debt Expense xx
Allowance for Doubtful Accts. xx
Since these expenses originally reduced net income, the amount of these expenses would need to be added back to net income to get to cash from operations.

10. (1) Indirect Method - Noncash Items
Note that the amortization of a discount has a similar format to that of depreciation expense (debit expense in a non cash transaction). Therefore, to adjust for amortization of a discount, add the amount of the discount amortization back to net income.
Since the amortization of a premium has the opposite effect on net income, we must subtract the amount of the premium amortization from net income to get to cash from operations.

11. (2)Indirect Method - Double Counted Items
The double counted items come from gains and losses on investing and financing activity.
For example, assume that land is sold for $10,000 cash, and the original cost was $9,000:
Cash 10,000
Land 9,000 Gain on Sale of Land 1,000
In this case, the $10,000 cash received would be shown in Investing. However, if the gain is not adjusted out of net income, we would be “double counting” that effect.

12. (2)Indirect Method - Double Counted Items
Therefore, any gains or losses from sale of investing assets (equipment, land, buildings, AFS and equity investments, intangibles). The adjustment to reverse out the effects would be:
add the amount of loss to net income.
subtract the amount of the gain from net income.
The same holds true for gains and losses from the early extinguishment of debt (like the gains/losses from the retirement of bonds).

13. (3) Indirect Method - Change in Related Assets and Liabilities
The third category examines the change in the assets and liabilities that relate to the remaining income statement items, after the items in (1) and (2) have been removed.
The adjustment for the effect of these changes is to effectively “squeeze” the income statement item from the accrual basis of accounting to the cash basis of accounting.

14. (3) Indirect Method - Change in Related Assets and Liabilities
For example, assume that total sales revenue recognized for the year is $100,000. At the beginning of the year, A/R were $2,000; at the end of the year, A/R were $3,000.
What amount of cash was collected from customers?
To analyze this effect, we must analyze the A/R account, and how it is increased and decreased.

15. (3) Indirect Method - Change in Related Assets and Liabilities
Accounts Receivable
First assume that all sales are on account. Now note that the relationship can be expressed in a formula involving A/R and Sales:
Beginning
Balance
Sales
Cash
Collection
on A/R
Ending
Balance
A/RBeginning + Sales - Cash Collections = A/REnding
Or:
A/RBeginning + Sales - A/REnding = Cash Collections

16. (3) Indirect Method - Change in Related Assets and Liabilities
A/RB + Sales A/RE = Cash Collections
2, , ,000 = Cash Collections
99,000 = Cash Collections
Note that, to convert from accrual basis sales revenues to cash basis sales revenues, an increase in A/R should be subtracted from net income to convert net income to a cash basis.
Correspondingly, a decrease in A/R should be added to net income to convert net income to a cash basis.

17. (3) Indirect Method - Change in Related Assets and Liabilities
This pair of rules can be expanded to a general set of rules to convert NI from accrual to cash basis:
Subtract increases in related assets.
Add decreases in related assets.
Add increases in related liabilities.
Subtract decreases in related liabilities.
Assets Opposite Liabilities Same AOLS
The types of assets that relate to the income statement are primarily current assets, but not always. To decide, you must look at each asset and its related income statement component. Also, remember that we are looking at the remaining assets and liabilities (after the eliminations in part 1). Since we have already eliminated depreciation expense and amortization expense, etc., we would not include the changes in these related assets (Accum. Depr., Patents, etc.).

18. (3) Indirect Method - Change in Related Assets and Liabilities
Examples of related assets are:
Accounts Receivable.
Dividends Receivable (relates to dividend income).
Inventories.
Prepaid Expenses.
Deferred Tax Assets (because this relates to
income tax expense).
Examples of related liabilities include:
Accounts Payable.
Interest Payable.
Income Tax Payable.
Other Current Liabilities.
Unearned Revenues (short and long term).
Deferred Tax Liabilities (because this relates to

22. CF from Operations - Direct Method
The direct method converts individual revenues and expenses to a cash basis, and ignores noncash items in the totals.
Each conversion is based on the difference between accrual basis and cash basis.
These differences are found in the same adjustments that were made to net income under the indirect method.

23. CF from Operations - Direct Method
To create the operating section using the direct method, start with the income statement, making sure to carry the expenses as negative (-) amounts.
Review the adjustments to net income as presented in the indirect method. Each of the adjustments relates to an item on the income statement.
Attach the adjustment (or adjustments) to each item, maintaining the direction of the adjustment. For example, A/R relates to sales; Inventory and A/P relate to COGS.

24. CF from Operations - Direct Method
The total for each line is the resulting cash received, or cash paid, for the item.
The total cash flow from operations is the same, but the amounts are derived directly and individually, rather than adjusting noncash items out of net income.
The calculations for the direct method are on the next slide. Refer to the adjustments for the indirect method on Slide 21. Each line can be attached to something on the income statement.
Some items adjust revenues and expenses to a cash basis; other items adjust the non-cash items to zero.

Cash paid for income taxes ( 4,400)
Cash flow from operations $ 20,500
(Note that the noncash (depreciation) and double counted (loss) items are omitted in the direct method).

27. CF from Investing Activities
Investing and financing activities often require additional information to evaluate.
A change in equipment could be from both sales and purchases.
Sales of PP&E also involve accumulated depreciation.
Sales of most investing assets also involve gains and losses.

28. Additional Issues - SCF
The FASB requires that significant noncash investing and financing activities be disclosed in a supplementary schedule to the SCF.
Examples of significant noncash investing and financing activities include:
conversion of bonds to stock.
purchase of assets with issue of stock.
purchase of assets with debt.
declaration (but not payment) of cash dividend.
stock dividends and stock splits.
