E10-7 Analysis of Consolidated Cash Flow Statement
Dividends paid to noncontrolling interest
Proportion of stock held by noncontrolling interest
Total dividends paid by Jones Delivery
When bonds are sold at a premium the annual cash payment is greater than
reported interest expense. The amount of premium amortized must therefore be
deducted from net income in determining the cash flow from operations.
An increase in accounts receivable means that cash collections have been less
than sales for the period. The amount of the increase must be deducted from
operating income to determine the amount of cash actually made available from
current period operations.
Dividends paid to noncontrolling shareholders are reported as a cash outflow in
the cash flow statement because they represent funds that have been distributed
during the period and are no longer available to the consolidated entity. On the
other hand, these same dividends are omitted from the retained earnings
statement. Only the income to the parent company shareholders is included in the
consolidated retained earnings statement and only dividends to the parent
company shareholders are deducted in deriving the ending consolidated retained
earnings balance.
The loss occurred on a sale to a nonaffiliate. All profits and losses on sales to
affiliates are eliminated in the period of intercompany sale and are considered
realized as the equipment is depreciated by the purchasing affiliate.
