Cash Flow Statement
Prepared by Nadeem Salam

2. Introduction
IAS 7, Cash Flow Statements, requires that a cash flow statement is included as part of a company’s financial statements. It complements the income statement and balance sheet as follows:
the income statement reports on the financial performance of the company
the balance sheet reports on the financial position of the company
the cash flow statement focuses on cash inflows and cash outflows, and reports on changes in the financial position of the company

3. Introduction
These three financial statements together provide users of published accounts with much of the information they need to understand the financial performance of the company.
A cash flow statement uses information from the accounting records (including income statement and balance sheet) to show an overall view of money flowing in and out of a business during an accounting period.
Such a statement explains to the shareholders why, after a year of good profits for example, there is a reduced balance at the bank or a larger bank overdraft at the year end than there was at the beginning of the year. The cash flow statement concentrates on the liquidity of the business: it is often a lack of cash (a lack of liquidity) that causes most businesses to fail. Cash is often described as the ‘life blood’ of a business.

12. DEALING WITH DIVIENDS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Dividends are distributions to the shareholders, who own the company, as a return on their investment. Many companies pay dividends twice a year – an interim dividend, which is usually paid just over halfway through the financial year, and a final dividend which is paid early in the next financial year. The interim dividend is based on the profits reported by the company during the first half of the year, while the final dividend is based on the profits reported for the full year. The final dividend is proposed by the directors but has to be approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the company. Thus the financial calendar for a company with a financial year end of 31 December 2009 might take the following form:

13. Jan March April August Jan
Jan March April August Jan
directors propose final dividend for 2008
directors propose final dividend for 2009
final dividend paid for 2008
interim dividend paid for 2009 based on reported profit for first half of year
AGM of the company approves final dividend for 2008

14. Only the dividends paid during the year can be recorded in the financial statements. In the above example, the dividends paid in April 2009 (final dividend for the previous year) and August 2009 (interim dividend for the current year) are recorded in the financial statements for the year ended 31 December The proposed final dividend for the year ended 31 December 2009 is disclosed as a note to the accounts, stating that it is subject to approval by the shareholders at the company’s Annual General Meeting.
