Teresa Ramirez and Lenny Traylor are examining the following statement of cash flows for Pacific Clothing Store’s first year of operations.

               

Teresa claims that Pacific’s statement of cash flows is an excellent portrayal of a superb first year, with cash increasing $109,000. Lenny replies that it was not a superb first year—that the year was an operating failure, the statement was incorrectly presented, and $109,000 is not the actual increase in cash.

Instructions
  (a) With whom do you agree, Teresa or Lenny? Explain your position.
  (b) Using the data provided, prepare a statement of cash flows in proper indirect method form. The only noncash items in income are depreciation and the gain from the sale of the investment (purchase and sale are related).
