In R18, example 13, question 2 – Which Company reports higher cash from operations?
Solution states that cash from operations reported by DIRFIN are lower but investing cash flow are higher than LOPER.
Now the statement of cash flow looks like this –
|
|
Year 1 |
Year 2 |
Year 3 |
Year 4 |
Total |
|
Operating cash flow |
32,860 |
40,639 |
39,195 |
37,607 |
150,302 |
|
Payments received on finance leases |
28,679 |
21,547 |
23,703 |
26,072 |
100,001 |
|
Investing cash flows |
28,679 |
21,547 |
23,703 |
26,072 |
100,001 |
|
Change in Cash |
|
250,302 |
|||
So is the Investing cash flow negative by 100,001? i.e. cash received on finance lease is invested ? Because
change is cash is 250,302. However, i don't understand how can Investing cash flow be higher?
Kindly provide an explanation.
Thanks in advance.
