Steps that are followed in preparing operating Section of Cash flow statement.

1. Take Net Income for the year

  • Firstly we will take net income for the year to start.

2. Adjust for Non Cash and Extra ordinary items :

  • Any non cash expense , or non operating expenses are added to net income because non cash expenses such as depreciation does not include any outflow of cash .
  • and non operating expenses such as interest expense are seperately shown in cash flow from financing activities.
  • Deduct any Non operating income such as gain from sale of asset, which will be seperately considered in cash flows from investments.

3. Adjust for Changes in Working Capital :

  • After the above adjustments , the income is before the changes of working capital.
  • now we have to adjust the net income for any changes in working capital.
  • Any increase in Account receivables will be reduced from net income, as it shows that some sales are not cash but on account. ( and vice versa ).
  • Any Increase in Accounts payable is added in net income ( and vice versa ) as it shows that some expenses are not yet paid in cash.

4. the result is the cash flows from Operating Activities.
