It is easier and less costly to prepare 2. It focuses on the differences between net income and net cash flow from operating activities
SIMPLE EXAMPLE FORV WHAT IS CASH FLOW COMPANY A EARNINGS FOR THIS YEAR Cash this year Cash next year revenue 100 crore 80 crore 20 crore Cost expenses -60 crore -50 crore -10 crore profit 40 crore In this table we cannot calculate the profit because cash flow for this year only 80 crore balance postponed to next year and cost expenses -50 crore this year balance post postponed to next year so we cant calculate this cash flow easily. Now we are going to see basic cash flow balance sheet for this table.
sales Cash inflow (this year) Cash outflow ( this year) 100 crore 80 crore + add previous year sales + add future year sales This year buisness have 60 crore cost &expenses (see the previous table) We only pay 50 crore for this year so have to recorded only 50 crore in cash + add previous year cost & expenses + add future year cost & expenses
