The only difference between the direct and indirect methods lies in the calculation of Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Under direct method, the Net Cash Flow from the Operating Activities is directly calculated by deduct- ing the cash outflows from the Operating Activities from the Cash Inflows from the Operating Activities. On the other hand, under the indirect method, the Net Cash Flow from the Operating Activities is indirectly calculated by adding back all the non-operating and non-cash items debited and by deducting all the non-operating and non- cash items credited to the Profit & Loss A/c for an accounting year with the Net Profit for that year.

As per Traditional Method, Cash means cash in hand and at bank (demand deposits) only, whereas as per AS-3, Cash includes not only cash in hand and at bank (demand deposits) but also short-term investments or marketable securities, fi. Cash Flows from different activities of an enterprise, such as operating, investing and Financing Activ- ities, can be separately known through the Cash Flow Statement prepared as per AS-3, by virtue of which the enterprise can identify its stronger and weaker area of cash generation. But, as per ‘Tradi tional Method, there is no such segregation of Cash Flows from the different activities of an enterprise. iii, As per AS-3, two separate approaches, namely, Direct and Indirect Method, may be followed for the preparation of a Cash Flow Statement, whereas a single approach is followed while preparing the Cash Flow Statement under Traditional Method. iv. Preparation of a Cash Flow Statement as per AS-3 is mandatory for all enterprises having an annual turnover of more than Rs. 50 crores and also for all companies whose shares or debts are listed on a recog- nized Stock Exchange of India. Enterprises those are not falling under the above categories may prepare their Cash Flow Statement as per the Traditional Method.
