Cash Flow Statement Short Questions Q&A FAQs
A Cash Flow statement is a Financial Statement that shows a company's cash inflows and outflows over a specific period. The statement can be used to measure a company's liquidity, its ability to pay its debts and fund its operations.
The Cash Flow statement is important because it provides a snapshot of a company's financial health. The statement can help investors, creditors and other stakeholders gauge a company's ability to meet its financial obligations.
The three main sections of a Cash Flow statement are operating activities, investing activities and financing activities.
Cash Flow from operations is calculated by subtracting a company's expenses from its revenue. Net income is the company's total revenue minus its total expenses, including income taxes. Cash Flow from operations measures a company's actual cash inflows and outflows, while net income is a measure of profit that appears on the company's income statement.
The key indicators to watch in a Cash Flow statement are: Cash Flow from operations, free Cash Flow and debt-to-equity ratio. These ratios can help investors, creditors and other stakeholders gauge a company's financial health.
