Gould’s statement of cash flows is presented in Exhibit 7.3. The operating section begins
with net income of $84,000, which is then adjusted for noncash depreciation and amor-
tization expense. Next, the gain on sale of assets is subtracted to zero it out (the proceeds
will be reflected in net cash flows from investing activities). Finally, changes in current

Statement of Cash Flows
For Year Ended December 31, Year 2
Note: Assets costing $30,000 were purchased during Year 2 and were
financed in whole by the manufacturer.
assets and liabilities are reflected as cash inflows (outflows) using the matrix presented
above. Gould realized $113,000 in net cash flow from operations in Year 2.
Net cash flows from investing activities include purchases (p) and sales (s) of plant
assets. Purchases can be inferred from the T-account for plant assets (PP&E):
Plant Assets
350,000
(p) 100,000 10,000 (s)
440,000
Beginning with a balance of $350,000, PP&E was reduced by the cost of the asset
sold (s). Net purchases (p), then, can be inferred as the amount necessary to yield the
ending balance of $440,000. Of the $100,000 increase in PP&E, only $70,000 was paid
in cash as the remainder was financed by the manufacturer. Thus, the $70,000 cash pay-
ment appears as purchases in the statement of cash flows. The $30,000 equipment pur-
chase is a noncash investing and financing activity and is not reflected in the body of the
statement of cash flows. Instead, it is referenced in an explanatory footnote.
