Preparing the Statement
of Cash Flows
Indirect and Direct Methods
Companies favor the indirect
method for two reasons:
1. It is easier and less costly
to prepare, and
2. It focuses on the
differences between net
income and net cash flow
from operating activities.
Format for Cash Flow Statement
Exercise-1 (Preparation of statement of cash flows – Indirect method)
The income statement and comparative balance sheet of Edison Corporation is given below:
You are required to prepare statement of cash flows of Edison Corporation using indirect
method.
• During the year 2017, a dividend of $130 was declared and paid by management
of Edison Corporation. Some plant assets were purchased during 2017 and the
payment was settled by issuing common stock amounting to $35.
Solution:
Working Notes:
• Depreciation expenses for the year 2017:
Accumulated depreciation on December 31, 2017 – Accumulated depreciation on
December 31, 2016
= $600 – $585
= $15
• Issuance of capital stock for cash:
(Capital stock on Dec. 31, 2017 – Capital stock on Dec. 31, 2016) – Capital stock issued in
exchange of plant assets
= ($950 – $850) – $35
= $65
• Cash received from sale of investment:
Cost of investment sold + Gain on sale of investment
= ($710 – $650) + $40
= $60 + $40
= $100
• Cash paid for purchase of plant assets:
(Gross plant assets on Dec. 31, 2017 – Gross plant assets on Dec. 31, 2016) – Plant assets
acquired in exchange of common stock
= ($950 – $850) – $35
= $65
