Current Assets Current Liabilities

Noncurrent Assets Noncurrent Liabilities

Shareholders Equity

Operating Cycle

Current assets include cash and all other assets


that a company reasonably expects to convert
to cash or sell or consume within one year or
during the normal operating cycle

A companys operating cycle is the time span


during which it spends cash to acquire goods
and services that it uses to produce its outputs,
which in turn it sells to customers, who in turn
pay for their purchases with cash.

Operating Cycle

Note that the box, Accounts Receivable (amounts


customers owe to the business), is larger than
the other two boxes because the objective of a
business is to sell goods at a price higher than
their acquisition cost.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is the total amount


owed to the company by its customers.

Often classified as current assets,


even though they may not be
collected within one year.

The account is reduced to net value by an


allowance account for doubtful accounts.

Investments made by a lessee (tenant) in items


such as painting, decorating, fixtures, and air-

from the premises when a lease expires.

Costs of leasehold improvements are written

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are divided into two categories:

(1) Those with definite lives


Costs are spread over the life of the asset using
a method identical to straight-line depreciation
except it is called amortization.

(2) Those with indefinite lives


Costs are not depreciated or amortized these
assets. Companies annually apply an impairment
test to assure that the asset has kept its value.

rate of dividends and is the last to
obtain a share in the assets when
the corporation is dissolved.

Common stockholders usually have


voting power to elect the board
of directors of the corporation.

Par Value (Stated Value)

The face of a stock certificate shows the


par or stated value. For preferred stock,
par is a basis for determining the amount
of dividends or interest. Par value has
no practical importance for common stock

Capital in excess of stated (or par) value is the


difference between the amount a company
receives when issuing new shares and the
stated or par value of the shares issued.

Retained Earnings and
Other Comprehensive Income

Retained earnings (retained income) is the


balance in stockholders equity due to the
cumulative effect over the life of the corporation
of all profits or losses generated less
amounts distributed to shareholders.

Other comprehensive income consists of a few


special types of gains and losses that do not
appear on the income statement and thus do
not become part of retained earnings.

The amount left after deducting all operating

or net profits or simply the bottom line.

Activities Frequently Found in
Statements of Cash Flows

Cash flows from operating activities are


generally the effects of transactions that
affect the income statement.

Cash flows from investing activities include


(1) lending and collecting principle repayments
on loans
(2) acquiring and selling long-term assets.

Cash flows from financing activities include


obtaining cash from creditors and owners,
repaying creditors or buying back stock from
owners, and paying cash dividends.

Objective 7 Financing and Investing Activities

The general rule for financing activities is:


Increases in cash (cash inflows) stem from
increases in liabilities or paid-in capital.
Decreases in cash (cash outflows) stem from
decreases in liabilities or paid-in capital or
payment of dividends.

Financing and Investing Activities

The general rule for investing activities is:


Increases in cash (cash inflows) stem from sales of long-
lived assets, collection of loans, and sales of investments.
Decreases in cash (cash outflows) stem from purchases
of long-lived assets, loans made to others, and purchases
of investments.

Noncash Investing and Financing Activities

Sometimes financing or investing activities


do not affect cash but are similar to
transactions that have a cash-flow effect.

Suppose a purchase of fixed assets was not for


cash but was financed by issuing common stock
or by signing a note payable. There is no entry
to the statement of cash flows.

Companies must list such activities in


a separate schedule accompanying the
statement of cash flows.

Learning Cash Flow from Operating
Objective 8
Activities

Users of financial statements are concerned with


assessing managements operating decisions.
They focus on the first major section of cash flow
statements, cash flows from operating activities
(or cash flows from operations).

Two methods are used to compute


cash flows from operating activities:
1. Direct Method
2. Indirect Method

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

The direct method for operating cash


flows subtracts operating cash disbursements
from cash collections to arrive at cash
flows from operations.

The indirect method for operating cash flows


adjusts the previously-calculated accrual
net income from the income statement to reflect
only cash receipts and cash disbursements.

Cash Flow from Operations:
The Direct Method

The direct method consists of a listing of cash


receipts (inflows) and cash disbursements
(outflows).

The easiest way to construct the statement of


cash flows from operations using the direct
method is to examine the cash column of the
balance sheet equation.

Cash Flow from Operations:
The Indirect Method

Most income statement items have a parallel


item in the statement of cash flows. Each sale
eventually results in cash inflows; each
expense entails cash outflows at some time.

When the cash inflow from a sale or the cash


outflow for an expense occurs in one accounting
period and is recorded in another, net income
can differ from the cash flows from operations.

Cash Flow from Operations:
The Indirect Method

The indirect method reconciles these differences


by starting with net income and then listing all
the adjustments necessary to turn net income
into cash flows from operating activities.

We construct the indirect method cash flow


statement from the current income statement
and the beginning and ending balance sheets.

Cash Flow from Operations:
The Indirect Method

The indirect method cash flow statement requires a


current income statement and the beginning and
ending balance sheets.

A general approach to adjustments:


Adjust for revenue and expenses not requiring cash
Add back depreciation and other noncash expenses
Adjust for changes in noncash assets and liabilities
relating to operating activities
Add decreases in assets
Deduct increases in assets
Add increases in liabilities
Deduct decreases in liabilities

Reconciliation Statement

If a company uses the direct method to report


cash flows from operating activities, users of the
financial statements would miss information
that relates net income to operating cash flows.

Direct-method statements must also include a


supplementary schedule reconciling net income
to net cash provided by operations, essentially
an indirect-method cash flow statement.

In essence, companies that choose to use the direct


method must also report using the indirect method.

Reconciliation Statement

Without the statement of cash flows, readers of


the annual report would have to conduct their own
analyses of the beginning and ending balance
sheets, the income statement, and the changes in
retained income to get a grasp of the impact of
financial management decisions.

Many analysts focus on free cash flow - cash flows


from operations less capital expenditures - the
cash flow left over after undertaking the firms
operations and making the investments necessary
to ensure its continued operation.

Objective 9 Role of Depreciation

Depreciation expense does not


entail a current outflow of cash. It is an
allocation of historical cost to expense.

We add depreciation to net income to


compute cash flow because it was earlier
subtracted in calculating net income.
Adding back depreciation merely cancels
its earlier deduction.

Appendix 16A:
Accounting for Inventories

Regardless of the inventory method used,


accountants must decrease the inventory value
if the inventorys market price drops
below its acquisition cost.

Accountants compare current market price of


inventory with its cost and select the lower of the
two as the inventory value. Market generally
means the current replacement cost under U.S.
GAAP or net realizable value under IFRS.
