Problem 14-12 (continued)
Burgess did not issue any bonds during the year; therefore, the amount
in the table on the prior page (–170) represents a cash outflow
pertaining to a bond retirement. Property, plant, and equipment and
retained earnings require further analysis as follows:
Property, plant, and equipment:
Beginning balance + Debits – Credits = Ending balance
The additions to property, plant, and equipment ($62) are recorded as a
cash outflow and the proceeds from the sale of equipment ($8) are
recorded as a cash inflow.
Retained earnings:
Beginning balance – Debits + Credits = Ending balance
The dividend payment ($66) should be recorded as a cash outflow in the
financing activities section of the statement.
