  • The cash from the sale will be added to the investing section.

The loss on sale will be added in the adjustment to the net income under the operating section

03

Impairment of goodwill

  • Impairment of goodwill are non-cash expenses; therefore, $15,000 will be added in the adjustments to the net income under the operating section.
04

Issue of shares

The cash inflow from the issue of the shares will be added to the section on financing activities. $16,000 will be added to the financing section.

05

Depreciation and patent amortization

Firstly, the net loss of $2,100 will be reported in the statement of cash flow, and then the depreciation expenses of $2,000 and patent amortization of $400 will be added to it, which will give cash flow from the operation of $3,000.

06

Writing off uncollectible accounts against the allowance for doubtful accounts

This transaction will not affect the cash position of the business entity. Therefore, it will not be reported in the statement of cash flow.

07

Sale of investment

$10,600 will be added in the investing section as the sale of investment and a loss of $1,400 will be added in the operating activities section of the statement of cash flow.

08

Redemption of bonds

The retirement of bonds will be deducted $24,000 from the financing section of the cash flow statement. And the gain of $2,260 will be deducted from the cash flow from operation.

Gainonredemption=Parvalue+Unamortizedbondpremium100×Redeemedvalueperbond-Parvalue=$24,000+$2,000$100×$101-$24,000=$2,260
