INTRODUCTION
ACCOUNTING STANDARD
Indian Accounting Standards (abbreviated as India AS) in India accounting
standards were issued under the supervision and control of Accounting
Standards Board (ASB), which was constituted in the year 1977. ASB is a
committee under Institute of Charted Accountants of India(ICAI).
Accounting Standards is to remove variations in the treatment of several
accounting aspects and to bring about standardization in presentation.
There are 32 Accounting standard in which I have choosen Accounting
Standard (3) CASH FLOW.
.Defination
of Cash Flow
A company can use a cash flow statement to predict future cash flow, which
helps with matters in budgeting. For investors, the cash flow reflects a
company's financial health: basically, the more cash available for business
operations, the better. However, this is not a hard and fast rule. Sometimes
a negative cash flow results from a company's growth strategy in the form
of expanding its operations.
By adjusting earnings, revenues, assets and liabilities, the investor can get
a very clear picture of what some people consider the most important
aspect of a company: How much cash it generates and, particularly, how
Being profitable does not necessarily mean being liquid. A company can fail
because of a shortage of cash even when it is profitable. Cash flow is
often used as an alternative measure of a company's profitability when it
is believed that accrual accounting concepts do not represent economic
realities.
Whether the cash flow from operating activities are quite sufficient in future
to meet the various payments e.g. payment of expenses
/debts/dividends/taxes.
For example, payment of liabilities may be temporarily delayed or marketable securities may be sold, increasing cash flow for a given period.
c This statement, since it does not cover non-cash items, is not useful in
analysing changes in financial position of an enterprise. Cash and changes
in cash are not adequate to measure change in financial position. For
instance, an enterprise may possess very satisfactory financial (cash)
position during a particular month. But if the firm has to pay Creditors next
month, or make payments for the plant purchased in the near future, the
cash position of the firm will be adversely affected.
In this way statement of changes in financial position measured through
cash only has drawbacks and does not indicate accurately the changes in
financial position. The statement has utility for making short term financial
planning but for long-term planning this statement would not be useful.
Because of the limited usefulness of statement of changes in cash, the
preparation of statement of changes in working capital (popularly known as
funds flow statement) has been suggested.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
In order to understand the concepts of cash flow structures, it is essential to
first understand what a cash flow statement is.
A cash flow statement is among the most vital financial statements for a
business or project. The cash flow statement can simply be one page
analysis or may comprise of several schedules that feed significant
information into a core or central statement. It refers to a listing of the cash
that is brought in and out of the project or business. Taking an example of a
checking account in a bank, the cash inflow is represented by deposits
while the cash outflows are represented by withdrawals that one makes in a
bank. The balance in ones checking account represents the net cash flow
at a certain point of time. A cash flow statement may also be defined as a
listing of cash flows, which occurred in the past accounting period (Rich,
2010). A cash flow budget refers to a projection of future cash flows. A
statement of cash flow is concerned with the amount both the amount and
timing of cash flows.
A majority of cash flows are constructed with multiple periods of time. For
example, the statement may list cash flows of each month over a time of
one year. It projects the balance of cash remaining at the end of each
month and years

Financial reports are required by law and are published both quarterly
and annually.
Management discussion give investors a better understanding of what
the company does and usually points out some key areas where they did
well.
Audited financial reports have much more credibility than unaudited
ones.
The balance sheet lists the assets, liabilities, and shareholder's equity.
For all balance sheets: Assets = Liabilities + Equity. These two sides
must always equal each other (balance).
The income statement includes figures such as revenue, expenses,
earnings, and earnings per share.
For a company, the top line is the revenue while the bottom line is net
income.
The income statement takes into account some non-cash items such as
depreciation. The cash-flow statement strips away all non-cash items
and tells you how much actual money the company generated.
The cash-flow statement is divided into three parts: cash from
operations, financing, and investing.
Always read the notes to the financial statements, they give you more indepth information on a wide range of figures reported in the 3 financial
statements.
