CP 16-1
Although this situation might seem harmless at first, it is, in fact, a violation of
generally accepted accounting principles. The operating cash flow per share figure
should not be shown on the face of the income statement. The income statement is
constructed under accrual accounting concepts, and operating cash flow fiundoes”
the accounting accruals. Thus, unlike Lucas’s assertion that this information would be
useful, more likely the information would be confusing to users. Some users might not
be able to distinguish between earnings and operating cash flow per share—or how to
interpret the difference. By agreeing with Lucas, John has breached his professional

CHAPTER 16 Statement of Cash Flows
CP 16-4
Start-up companies are unique in that they frequently have negative retained
earnings and operating cash flows. The negative retained earnings are often due to
losses from high start-up expenses. The negative operating cash flows are typical
because growth requires cash. Growth must be financed with cash before the cash
returns. For example, a company must expend cash to provide the service in Period 1
before selling it and receiving cash in Period 2. The start-up company constantly faces
the problem of spending cash today for the next period’s growth. For Giraffe Inc., the
CP 16-5
a. 1. Normal practice for determining net cash flows from operating activities
during the year is to begin with the reported net income. This net income
must ordinarily be adjusted upward or downward to determine the amount of
cash flows. Although many operating expenses decrease cash, depreciation
does not. The amount of net income understates the amount of cash flows
2. Generally accepted accounting principles require that significant transactions
affecting future cash flows be reported in a separate schedule to the
statement even though they do not affect cash. Accordingly, even though the

4. The balance sheets for the last two years will indicate the increase in cash but
will not indicate the firm’s activities in meeting its financial obligations, paying
dividends, and maintaining and expanding operating capacity. Such information,
as provided by the statement of cash flows, assists creditors in assessing the
firm’s solvency and profitability—two very important factors impacting the
evaluation of a potential loan.
