Question: What accounts on the balance sheet must be evaluated when completing the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows?

Question: What accounts on the balance sheet must be evaluated when completing the investing activities section of the statement of cash flows?

Moss Exports is having a bad year. Net income is only \(60,000. Also, two important overseas customers are falling behind in their payments to Moss, and Moss’s accounts receivable are ballooning. The company desperately needs a loan. The Moss Exports Board of Directors is considering ways to put the best face on the company’s financial statements. Moss’s bank closely examines cash flow from operating activities. Daniel Peavey, Moss’s controller, suggests reclassifying the receivables from the slow-paying clients as long-term. He explains to the board that removing the \)80,000 increase in accounts receivable from current assets will increase net cash provided by operations. This approach may help Moss get the loan.

Requirements

  1. Using only the amounts given, compute net cash provided by operations, both without and with the reclassification of the receivables. Which reporting makes Moss look better?
  2. Under what condition would the reclassification of the receivables be ethical? Unethical?

Classifying cash flow items Consider the following transactions:

  1. Purchased equipment for \(130,000 cash.
  2. Issued \)14 par preferred stock for cash.
  3. Cash received from sales to customers of \(35,000.
  4. Cash paid to vendors, \)17,000.
  5. Sold building for \(19,000 gain for cash.
  6. Purchased treasury stock for \)28,000.
  7. Retired a notes payable with 1,250 shares of the company’s common stock.

Identify the category of the statement of cash flows in which each transaction would be reported.
