Indirect Method
• The indirect method means that the net income or loss is adjusted
for the effects of transactions of a non-cash nature, any deferrals or
accruals of past or future operating cash receipts and payments, and
items of income or expense associated with investing and financing
activities.
• The indirect method of presenting the cash flow from operation
begins with the accrual basis net income and applies a series of
adjustments to convert the income to a cash basis.
• The direct method and indirect method are applicable only to
operating activities.
• PAS 7, paragraph 21, provided that an entity shall report separately
major classes of gross cash receipts and gross cash payments arising
from investing and financing activities using the direct method.
Indirect Method
The following general guidelines are offered for adjustments of net income to cash basis:
• All increases in trade noncash current assets are deducted from net income
• All decreases in trade noncash current assets are added to net income.
• All increases in trade current liabilities are added to the net income.
• All decreases in trade current liabilities are deducted to the net income.
• Depreciation, Amortization and other noncash expenses are added back to the net
income to eliminate the effect they had on net income.
• Any gain on disposal of property or gain on early retirement of nontrade liabilities is
included in net income but it is a non-operating item. Thus, it is deducted from net
income.
• Any loss on disposal of property or gain on early retirement of nontrade liabilities is
included in net income but it is a non-operating item. Thus, it is added from net
income.
• Other noncash income or gain is deducted from net income and other noncash
expense or loss is added to net income to eliminate the effect on net income.
