Cash Flows - 1
CAS H FLOW STATEM ENT
On the statemen t, cash flow s are segregated based on source:
Operating activities:involve the cash effect s of transactions that
enter into the determination of net income.
Investing activities:conc ern with buying (and selling) property, plants,
and equipment (PPE); acquiring and disposing of
securities of ot her entities;
Financing activit ies:include issuance and reacquisition of a firm's debt
and capital stock, and divi dend payments.
Operating cash flows information indicates the business' ability to
generate sufficient ca sh from its continuing operatio ns
Investing cash flows information indicates how the business plans to
expand
Information about financing cash flows illustrates how the business plans to
finance its expansion/reward shareholders.
Cash Flows - 2
Cash from operations: The statement of cash flows typically arrives at
cash from operations by adding to (or subtracting from) net income two
types of adjustments:
1. “Non-cash” expenses’
2. Changes in operating (working capital)
e.g.:
Net Income$30,000
Non Cash Expenses:
e.g. Depreciation 5,000
$35,000
Change in operating accounts:
Decrease in inventory 15,000
Cash from operations$50,000
The format illustrated above follows the indirect method of pres entation.
For analytical purposes, (as we shall see), the direct method is more
useful;

The relationship between balance sheet changes and cash flows can be
summarized as follows:
Increases (decreases) in assets represent net cash outflows (inflows). If an
asset increases, the firm must have paid cash in exchange.
Increases (decreases) in liabilities represent net cash inflows (outflows).
When a liability increases, the firm must have received cash in exchange.

Cash Flow Classification Issues
While the classification of cash flows into the threemaincategories is
important, we must recognize that
classification guidelines can be arbitrary.
Although total cash flow is not subje ct to manipulation
CFO (and CFF and CFI) is affected by re porting methods that alter the
classification of cash fl ows among opera ting, i nvesting, and financing
categories
1. Cash flows involving Property Plant and Equipment
2. Differenc es due to some accounting methods
3. Interest and dividends re ceived
4. Interest paid
5. Noncash transactions
Drawbacks of cash from operations (analyst point of view).
Cash from operations does not include charges for the useof long-lived
assets; depreciation is added back intoincome in arriving at cashfrom
operations.
Cash from operations does not include cash outlays for replacing old
equipment (required to en sure uninterrupted operating activ ities) .
Identical firms that make different accounting choices may report different
cash from operations.
Examples:
1. Leasing firms report lower cash from operationsthan purchasing firms as
lease rentals reduce cash from operations whereas payments for
purchas ing reduce cash from investing ac tivities.
2. Capitalizing expenditures-firms report higher cash fromoperations than
expensing-firms.

FREE CASH FLOWS
To overcome these problems, analysts typicallyuse free cashflows
as an alternative measure for cash from operations defined as:
CFO less net cash outla ys for the repl acement of operating capacity.
Althoughthe definition implies that only net investment in replacing old
equipment is subtracted from cash from operations, in practicetotal
investment appearing in the cash used by investing activity section ofthe
statement of cash flows is used. This may overstate (understate) thenet
investment in replacing equipment because some of the investment
reported under cash used by investing activities may represent expansion
(downsizing). Thus, the free cash flow may overstate or understate true
cash from operations.
Free cash flows still shares two drawbacks of cash from operations
Interest and dividends received, which are classified as operating cash
flows, should be reclassified (using the after-tax numbers) asinvesting
cash flows. This has the advantages of reporting operating cash flows
that reflect only operating activities of the firm's core business
Interest payments, which are classified as operating cash flows, should
be reclassified (using the after-tax numbers) as cash used by financing
activities. This has the advantage of reporting identical cash from
operations by two firms with different capital structure but otherwise
identical.
Significant Noncash transactions
Cash Flows - P. 11
Alternatively CFO provides information as to
Liquidity
The cash flow statement provides information about the firm's liquidity
and its ability to finance its growth from internally generated funds.
The Effect of Accounting Policies
The cash flow statement allows the analyst to distinguish between the
actual events that have occurred and the accounting assumptions that
have been used to report these events.
The (Validi t y) of the Going Concer n Assumpti on
the statement of cash flows serves as a “check” on the assumptions
inherent in the income statement.
Analysis of Cash Fl ow Trends
The data con tained in the statement of cash flow s can be used to
1. Revie w individual cash flow items for analytic significance
2. Examine the trend of different cash flow components over time and their
relati onship to relat ed income stat ement items.
3. Consider the interrelationship between cash flow components over time
