3.  A company has the following cash Δows: Cash from operations 10 Cash from investing activities (1) Cash from Δnancing activities (9) Which growth stage best describes this pattern of cash Δows? Decline Correct Response 

This pattern is typical for a company in decline. The company still has a positive cash from operations, but is investing very little in long-term assets, indicating that it doesn't have many new opportunities. The company uses its excess free cash Δow to pay dividends, pay down debt, or buy back equity, which leads to a negative Δnancing cash Δow.

4.  A company bought $50,000 of inventory for $20,000 cash, with the balance due to the supplier in 30 days. What is the operating cash Δow in this transaction? $0 ($50,000) ($20,000) Correct Response 

You can think of this as two transactions. First, the company bought $20,000 of inventory with cash. This is an operating cash Δow. Second, the company bought $30,000 of inventory on account. This is a non-cash transaction. So, the operating cash Δow is ($20,000).

Homework #3 | Coursera

A decrease in Accounts Receivable would be added back (decrease in a noncash asset = increase in cash on the balance sheet equation).

Decrease in Accounts Payable Correct Response 

A decrease in Accounts Payable would be subtracted (decrease in liability = decrease in cash on the balance sheet equation).

Depreciation on a building Incorrect Response 

Depreciation is added back to Net Income under the indirect method, so it would be a positive number.

Gain on sale of equipment Correct Response 

Gain on sale of equipment would be subtracted from Net Income under the indirect method (it increased net income but must be subtracted out because it is not operating, but investing).

$2 $12 ($2) Incorrect Response 

Let’s do the indirect method! Start with Net Income of $10. Add back $2 of Depreciation Expense. Subtract the increase in A/R of $5. Subtract the decrease in A/P of $10. Add the decrease in Inventory of $5. The answer is $10 + $2 – $5 – $10 + $5 = $2.

A company put together a preliminary version of its Δnancial statements. Its Net Income was $300, its Depreciation Expense was $80, and its Cash Flow from Operations was $190. The accountant found an error in computing straight-line Depreciation Expense. It should have been $70. What is Cash from Operations after Δxing this mistake? (you can ignore taxes) $190 Correct Response 

Net Income would increase by $10 with the smaller expense. The amount of depreciation expense added back would go down by $10. These would cancel each other out and there would be no eΔect on Cash from Operations. So, Cash from Operations would remain at $190.

 8. 

A company sold PP&E for $200 cash. Prior to the sale, the net book value of the PP&E on the Δnancial statements was $240. Thus, the company recorded a Loss on Sale of Equipment of $40 in Net Income. What is the operating cash Δow in this transaction? $160 $40 $200 $0 Correct Response 

The answer is zero! The entire $200 cash is an investing cash Δow. The loss will be added back in the operating section, but that is merely to avoid double counting, since the loss also shows up in Net Income (i.e., the loss reduced Net Income by $40, then we added back $40 in the operating section to get to “no eΔect” on operating cash Δows).

Correct Response 

Acquisitions and foreign currency adjustments were two reasons given in the video for why a number on the SCF might not match the change on the Balance Sheet. Thus, those two transactions will not appear in the operating section. In the other cases, the sale or purchase of Inventory, or payments to suppliers, will show up in the operating section.

10.  A company had EBITDA of $1000, Depreciation and Amortization Expense of $100, Interest Expense of $100, and Tax Expense of $50. What was the company’s Net Income? $950 $1250 $1000 $750 Correct Response 

EBITDA = Net Income (or Earnings) + Depreciation and Amortization Expense + Interest Expense + Tax Expense. Thus, $1000 = Net Income + $100 + $100 + $50 => Net Income = $1000 – $250 = $750.
