practice.
Many financial executives have reported that they do not use it because it is more
expensive to implement than the indirect method.

Required Supplemental Information
1. Reconciliation of net income to cash flow from operations.
2. Cash paid for income taxes and interest.
3. Significant non-cash investing and financing activities.
Adjustment for Gains and Losses
GainsGains must be subtracted from net
income to avoid double counting the gain.
Losses Losses must be added to net income to avoid double counting the loss.
Transactions that cause gains and losses should be classified on the cash flow statement depending on their dominate
characteristics.
For example, if the sale of equipment produced a gain, it would be classified as an investing activity.
Interpreting Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Accounts Receivable Changes
Managers sometimes attempt to boost declining sales by extending credit
terms or by lowering credit standards. The resulting increase in accounts receivable can cause net income to outpace cash flows from operations.
Inventory Changes
Inventory growth can be a sign that planned sales growth did not
materialize. A decline in inventory can be a sign that the company is
anticipating lower sales in the next quarter.
Interpreting Cash Flows from Financing Activities
The long-term growth of a company is normally financed from three sources:
1. internally generated funds, 2. the issuance of shares, and
3. money borrowed on a long-term basis.The statement of cash flows shows how
management has elected to fund its growth. This information is used by analysts who wish to evaluate
the capital structure and growth potential of a business.
