Company AA

Statement of Cash Flows for the Year 2017

Net income                                                            $20,000

Add depreciation:                                                      5,000

Decrease in Accounts receivable                           10,000

Increase in Prepaid rent                                           (1,000)

Decrease in Accounts payable                                (1,000)

Net cash flows from operating activities            $33,000

Please note the following:

  • Depreciation was added back because it is non-cash item
  • Decrease in accounts receivable represents cash inflow
  • Increase in prepaid rent represents an outflow of cash
  • Decrease in accounts payable represents cash outflow
