Statement Chapter of Cash Flows
ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
1. The income statement reports revenues earned and expenses incurred during a period of time. It is prepared on an accrual basis. The balance sheet reports the assets, liabilities, and equity of a business at a point in time. The statement of cash flows reports cash receipts and cash payments of a business, from three broad categories of business activities: operating, investing, and financing. The statement of cash flows reports cash receipts and cash payments from three broad categories of business activities: operating, investing, and financing. While the income statement reports operating activities, it reports them on the accrual basis: revenues when earned, and expenses when incurred, regardless of the timing of the cash received or paid. The statement of cash flows reports the cash flows arising from operating activities. The balance sheet reports assets, liabilities, and equity at a point in time. The statement of cash flows and related schedules indirectly report changes in the balance sheet by reporting operating, investing, and financing activities during a period of time, which caused changes in the balance sheet from one period to the next. In this way, the statement of cash flows reports information to link together the financial statements from one period to the next, by explaining the changes in cash and other balance sheet accounts, while summarizing the information into operating, investing, and financing activities. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are purchased within three months of the maturity date. The statement of cash flows does not separately report the details of purchases and sales of cash equivalents because these transactions affect only the composition of total cash and cash equivalents, not the total amount. The statement of cash flows reports the change in total cash and cash equivalents from one period to the next. The major categories of business activities reported on the statement of cash flows are operating, investing, and financing activities. Operating activities of a business arise from the production and sale of goods and/or services. Investing activities arise from acquiring and disposing of property, plant, and equipment and investments. Financing activities arise from transactions from investors and creditors.

Cash inflows from operating activities include cash sales, collections on accounts, and notes receivable arising from sales, dividends on investments, and interest on loans and investments. Cash outflows from operating activities include payments to suppliers and employees, and payments for operating expenses, taxes, and interest. Depreciation expense is added to net income to adjust for the effects of a noncash expense that was deducted in determining net income. It does not involve an inflow of cash. Cash expenditures for purchases and salaries are not reported on the statement of cash flows, indirect method, because that method does not report cash inflows and outflows for each operating activity. Rather, it reports only net income, changes in accounts payable and wages payable, and net cash flow from operating activities. The $50,000 increase in inventory must be used in the statement of cash flows calculations because it increases the outflow of cash all other things equal. It is used as follows: Direct methodadded to cost of goods sold, accrual basis (the other adjustment would involve accounts payable) to compute cost of goods sold, cash basis. Indirect methodsubtracted from net income as a reconciling item to obtain cash flows from operating activities. The two methods of reporting cash flows from operating activities are the direct method and the indirect method. The direct method reports the gross amounts of cash receipts and cash payments arising from the revenues and expenses reported on the income statement. The indirect method reports the net amount of cash provided or used by operating activities, by reporting the adjustments to net income for the net effects of noncash revenues and expenses, and changes in accruals and deferrals. The two approaches differ in the way they report cash flows from operating activities, but are similar in that the final result, net cash provided by operating activities, is the same amount.

10. Cash inflows from investing activities include cash received from sale of operational assets, sale of investments, maturity value of bond investments, and principal collections on notes receivable. Cash outflows from investing activities include cash payments to purchase property, plant, and equipment and investments, and to make loans. 11. Cash inflows from financing activities include cash received from issuing stock, the sale of treasury stock, and borrowings. Cash outflows from financing activities include cash payments for dividends, the purchase of treasury stock, and principal payments on borrowing.

12. Noncash investing and financing activities are activities that would normally be classified as investing or financing activities, except no cash was received or paid. Examples of noncash investing and financing include the purchase of assets by issuing stock or bonds, the repayment of loans using noncash assets, and the conversion of bonds into stock. Noncash investing and financing activities are not reported in the statement of cash flows, because there was no cash received or cash paid; however, the activities are disclosed in a separate schedule. 13. When equipment is sold, it is considered an investing activity, and any cash received is reported as a cash inflow from investing activities. When using the direct method, the cash received from the sale of equipment is reported as an investing cash inflow. When using the indirect method, the gain on sale of equipment must be reported as a deduction from net income, because the gain was included in net income, but did not provide any cash from operating activities. The cash received is reported in the investing activities section of the statement of cash flows. If the equipment was sold at a loss, the cash received is reported as a cash inflow from investing activities when using the direct method. When using the indirect method, the loss on sale of equipment is added to net income because the loss was included in net income but did not require an operating cash outflow. The cash received is reported as an investing cash inflow.

* Due to the nature of these cases and projects, it is very difficult to estimate the amount of time students will need to complete the assignment. As with any open-ended project, it is possible for students to devote a large amount of time to these assignments. While students often benefit from the extra effort, we find that some become frustrated by the perceived difficulty of the task. You can reduce student frustration and anxiety by making your expectations clear. For example, when our goal is to sharpen research skills, we devote class time discussing research strategies. When we want the students to focus on a real accounting issue, we offer suggestions about possible companies or industries.

E134. While depreciation is indeed added to net income to compute cash flow from operating activities, the new controller's idea will not work. If depreciation expense is increased, net income will decrease by exactly the same amount. When depreciation is added to the new net income number, the sum will be exactly the same as the amount that was computed before depreciation was increased. The only way to increase cash flow is to increase revenues, decrease expenses (other than depreciation), or improve the efficiency of operations (such as collecting receivables more quickly or operating with less inventory).

The direct method reports cash flows from operating activities individually for each major revenue and expense. In contrast, the indirect method reports a reconciliation of net income to cash flow from operating activities. The two methods report the investing and financing activities in exactly the same way.

E1316. Req. 1 Capital acquisitions ratio = Cash flow from operations = Cash Paid for Plant & Equipment Req. 2 The capital acquisitions ratio measures the company's ability to finance plant and equipment purchases from operations. Since this amount was less than 1 (0.81), the remainder, or 19%, must have been financed from external sources or preexisting cash balances. Req. 3 During year 3, Petes completed an initial public offering of its common stock. $2,900 $3,581 = 0.81
E1317. Req. 1 Both of these transactions are considered noncash investing and financing activities, and are not reported on the statement of cash flows. The transactions must be disclosed in a separate schedule or in the footnotes. The information disclosed in the separate schedule would state: a. Equipment valued at $26,000 was acquired by giving a $15,000, 12%, two-year note, and common stock with a market value of $11,000. b. A machine valued at $8,700 was acquired by exchanging land with a book value of $8,700. Req. 2 The capital acquisitions ratio measures the company's ability to finance plant and equipment purchases from operations. Since neither of these transactions enters the numerator or denominator of the ratio, they would have no effect. Many analysts believe that these transactions represent important capital acquisitions, and thus should be included in the denominator of the ratio to indicate what portion of all (not just cash) acquisitions are being financed from operations.

CASES AND PROJECTS
FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ANALYSIS CASES CP131. 1. 2. 3. The company uses the indirect method. Tax payments of $37,362 thousand were made (Note 2, Supplemental Disclosures of Cash Flow Information). Stock compensation is a noncurrent accrued expense (an expense paid with common stock) like depreciation expense. It was added back to net income because this type of expense does not cause a cash outflow when it is recorded. Loss on impairment and write-off of fixed assets relates to an investing activity and did not affect cash. Like noncurrent accrued expenses, this loss must be added back to net income because it does not cause a cash outflow when it is recorded. Free Cash Flow was $62,766 thousand, calculated as (in thousands): Cash Flows from Operating Activities less Dividends less Capital Expenditures Free Cash Flow 5. $150,59 1 0 87,825 $62,766
4.
No, the company has not paid cash dividends during the last three years. There are no dividend payments listed under the Financing section of the statement of cash flows.
CP132. 1. The three largest Adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities were: (a) Increase in inventories: the increase of $45,735 was subtracted from net income in the reconciliation because purchases of inventories were greater than the amount of inventory sold. (b) Depreciation and amortization: the $30,731 expense was added to net income in the reconciliation because it is a noncurrent accrued expense, which does not cause a cash outflow when it is recorded. (c) Increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities: the $21,626 increase is added back to net income because actual payments were less than the expense recognized.

CP132. (continued) 2. Abercrombie & Fitchs major uses of cash over the past three years have been capital expenditures, repurchases of treasury stock, and purchases of inventories. The major source of cash for these activities has been cash flow provided by operating activities. Over the next few years, the company expects to incur additional capital expenditures to support its planned expansion. The primary sources of financing these future expenditures are expected to be future cash flows provided by operating activities (as well as existing cash and cash equivalents). This is discussed in the capital expenditures section of Managements Discussion and Analysis. Free Cash Flow was $5,723 thousand, calculated as (in thousands): Cash Flows from Operating Activities less Dividends less Capital Expenditures Free Cash Flow $151,18 9 0 153,481 $(2,292)
3.
This implies that the company is limited in its financial flexibility, although the negative free cash flow balance is mitigated by the high level of current cash and cash equivalents.
CP133. 1. Quality of = Cash flow from operations income ratio Net income Abercrombie & Fitch $151,189 = 0.96 158,133 American Eagle Outfitters $150,591 = 1.61 93,758
American Eagle Outfitters has a higher quality of income ratio than does Abercrombie & Fitch. This difference might be explained by fact that American Eagle significantly increased its short-term liabilities in the 2000 fiscal year (they increased from $88,425 to $149,147, or 69%), while Abercrombie & Fitch did not have a similar dramatic increase.

CP133. (continued) 2. Quality of Income = Industry Average 1.61 Abercrombie & Fitch 0.96 American Eagle Outfitters 1.61
Abercrombie & Fitchs quality of income ratio is below the industry average, while American Eagle Outfitters quality of income ratio is equal to the industry average. Two things affect this ratio: the fact that these two companies are growing rapidly (see below), and the effect of operating leases on the cash flow statement. Because these companies rely primarily on operating leases for their stores, all of rent expense is included in Operating Cash Flows, whereas for other companies in the industry that own their stores, depreciation is added back to CFO. Industry Average 9.04% Abercrombie & Fitch 20.1%* American Eagle Outfitters 31.4%**
Sales Growth =
* ($1,237,604 1,030,858) / 1,030,858 ** ($1,093,477 832,104) / 832,104 Sales growth helps us explain some of the difference in the quality of income ratio. Both of these companies are in high growth mode, and are spending cash to advertise and build inventories in anticipation of higher sales in the future. 3. Capital = Cash flow from operations acquisitions Cash Paid for Plant & ratio Equipment Abercrombie & Fitch $151,189 = 0.99 153,481 American Eagle Outfitters $150,591 = 1.72 87,825
American Eagle Outfitters has a higher capital acquisitions ratio than does Abercrombie & Fitch. This implies that American Eagle Outfitters has a greater ability to fund additional capital expenditures from the cash flow provided by its operating activities. 4. Capital Acquisitions = Industry Average 0.65 Abercrombie & Fitch 0.99 American Eagle Outfitters 1.71
Both American Eagle Outfitters and Abercrombie & Fitchs Capital Acquisitions ratios are higher than the industry average. This implies that both companies have a greater ability to fund additional capital expenditures from the cash flow provided by their operating activities than the average company in the industry.

CP134. 1. The company uses an indirect method to present the operating section of the cash flow statement. Note 32 presents the reconciliation of income (in this case, beginning with operating profit) to cash flows from operating activities. Some of the terms used in the statement may be unfamiliar to U.S. students. The statement itself is a "group cash flow statement, compared to Boston Beers consolidated statement. In the reconciliation of net income to cash flow from operations, the changes in the typical balance sheet accounts are listed but may not be easily identified as such: decrease in stocks (inventory), decrease in debtors (accounts receivable), and decrease in creditors (accounts payable). Differences also exist in the structure of the statement. Consider cash flows from operating activities. Cash flow from operating activities is presented in a note to the financial statements, not on the statement itself. Cash flow from operating activities is divided between cash from ordinary operating activities and unusual items. Interest received and interest paid are listed under returns on investments and servicing of finance rather as part of operating activities. Taxation payments are also listed separately. In Boston Beers statement, interest and tax payments are not readily available from the statement itself, but are provided in supplemental disclosure. As such, Scottish & Newcastles presentation of operating activities is arguably a mixture of the indirect and direct methods. The investing section of the statement should look more familiar to U.S. students, with the exception that acquisitions and disposals are granted their own section on the statement. Under U.S. GAAP, these would be included as line items within the investing activities section. More differences are found between the financing sections of the statements. Recall that under U.S. GAAP, dividends are treated as a financing item. In the Scottish & Newcastle statement, dividends are listed in two different locations: preferred dividends are listed along with interest under returns on investments and servicing of finance and dividends on common stock is listed as a separate line item (equity dividends paid). A subtotal is provided before considering liquid resources and financing. Liquid resources are term deposits of less than one year. On Boston Beers statement, these would likely be listed as short-term investments (an investing activity). The effect of these differences is to focus the investors attention away from operating activities (highlighted on U.S. statements) and onto service payments (such as interest, taxation, and dividends), liquidity, and solvency (discussed further in Chapter 14). This redirection is also visible in the additional notes required reconciling net cash flow to movement in net debt and the analysis of net debt.

CRITICAL THINKING CASES CP135. Date: To: From: Re: (todays date) Supervising Analyst (your name) Evaluation of Carlyle Golf, Inc.s Planned Expansion
While many companies experience losses and negative cash flows during the early years of their operations, the cash situation for Carlyle Golf is a major concern. The company has announced plans to increase inventory by $2.2 million but there is no obvious source to finance the acquisition of this inventory. The statement of cash flows shows that the company has to make cash deposits with its suppliers. It is unlikely that these suppliers will be a major source of financing for Carlyle's inventory. The company obviously does not have enough cash on hand to finance its expansion of inventory. The planned expansion of inventory has additional implications. The company must have plans to expand its sales volume. There is no information in the company's report concerning whether this expansion will require additional expenditures, such as increased advertising or hiring new sales people. In any case, the expansion will most likely require an increase in accounts receivable. Most companies underestimate the amount of resources that must be tied up in inventory and accounts receivable when they expand sales volume. Carlyle should seek additional capital to support an increased level of operations. Without this extra capital, it is unlikely that Carlyle can continue in business. Instructor's note: Subsequent to September 1992, Carlyle sought new financing through an initial public offering. At the time of this writing, the company is still trying to develop a niche in a very competitive market.
