Operating Activities
◆ Cash inflows and outflows that are directly
related to income from normal operations.
◆ Technically, FASB defines operating activities as
those that are not investing or financing
activities.
◆ There are two ways to compute net cash flow
from operating activities:
– Direct method
– Indirect method

Direct Method
Converting Deferrals to Cash Basis
◆ Accounts like unearned revenue and prepaid
insurance may cause the cash received or
disbursed to be different from the revenue or
expense shown on the income statement.
◆ Cash for a deferred expense can be
computed as:
Expense + Increase
Accrual Basis or
- Decrease in Expense,
related PREPAID = Cash Basis

Direct Method
Converting Deferrals to Cash Basis
◆ Accounts like unearned revenue and prepaid
insurance may cause the cash received or
disbursed to be different from the revenue or
expense shown on the income statement.
◆ Cash from an unearned revenue
(deferred revenue) can be computed as:
Revenue, + Increase
Accrual Basis or
- Decrease in Revenue,
Unearned rev. = Cash Basis

Direct Method
Example:
Suppose the Unearned Revenue account
showed a beginning balance of $200 and an
ending balance of $900. The income
statement indicates that $1,200 is the
amount of Revenue (earned) for the period.
How much cash was collected for revenue
(assuming A/R did not change)?
Unearned Revenue Revenue
Unearned Revenue
200
900
So,
Revenue Accrual based Revenue $1,200
1200 Increase in Unearn.Rev.
= Cash collected from
1200 customers $
Direct Method
Example:
What is cash-basis revenue??
Unearned Revenue

So,
Revenue Accrual based Revenue $1,200
1200 + Increase in Unearn.Rev. 700
= Cash collected from
1200 customers $1,900
To summarize:
◆ What kinds of accounts need to
be examined to see if there is a
difference between our accrual
accounting records and actual
cash?
versus
General Ledger
To summarize:
◆ Accounts Receivable
◆ Prepaids
◆ Inventory
◆ Accounts Payable
◆ Other Payables
Indirect Method
◆ Net cash flows from operating activities
are determined by . . .
◆Starting with net income, then . . .
◆Adding and subtracting items that reconcile
net income to operating cash flows.
◆ Requires an analysis of changes in all
current asset and current liability accounts
[related to operations], except cash.
T-account approach
◆ Set up a t-account for every balance
sheet account
– Put beginning and ending balances in the
accounts, using comparative balance
sheets
◆ Make the CASH T-account a BIG one,
with room for the three sections of the
Statement of Cash Flows
T-account approach:
◆ Make every balance sheet
account balance, using the
income statement accounts to
calculate increases and
decreases to the accounts.
◆ When the cash number is
calculated for various increases
or decreases in balance sheet
accounts, put the appropriate
debit or credit in the big cash
T-account.

T-account approach:
◆ Problem 12-16A (Pacific
Company) is a good Let’s do
demonstration problem
of using the T-account 12-16A
approach to prepare a
Statement of Cash
Flows using the direct
method.
But first, there are just a few
more slides to summarize things.
