Statement of Cash Flows

Project Description

Statement of cash flows is the component of a financial statement that summarizes the inward and outward movement of cash in a business. This section captures the inflows and outflows of money generated from operations, investments and financing activities. Cash flows from operations focus on the day-to-day activities such as sales and inventory purchases. Investment cash flows relate to income and expenses generated by long-term projects or programs. The financing cash flows segment tracks changes in the capital composition of the business as occasioned by the sale of shares and distribution of dividends, as well as borrowing and repayment of debt.
