Question
Chapter 9, Problem 1YT
To determine
State the major difference among the direct and indirect methods of presenting the cash flow statement and state the similarities.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The difference is in the section that analyses cash flows from operating activities. The direct method recognizes each cash flow, while the indirect method begins with net income and adjusts it to a cash amount.
The net cash flow from operating activities is the same irrespective of the method used. The further two sections—cash from investing activities and cash from financing activities—are the same with both methods.
