    Depreciation is added back to net income in the operating activities section because the company's net income was reduced by the depreciation expense shown on the income statement; however, the company's cash was not reduced by depreciation expense.

    A negative effect could also be thought of as a use of cash, a decrease in cash, or a negative amount on the cash flow statement.

  • 19.

    An increase in the balance of Prepaid Insurance.

    Positive

    Wrong.

    Prepaid Insurance is a current asset. An increase in any asset account balance (other than Cash) is assumed to have used Cash or decreased Cash. Both of these are considered to have a negative effect on Cash.

    Negative

    Right!

    Prepaid Insurance is a current asset. An increase in any asset account balance (other than Cash) is assumed to have used Cash or decreased Cash. Both of these are considered to have a negative effect on Cash.

    [Because Prepaid Insurance is a current asset, the decrease in Cash appears in the operating activities section of the statement of cash flows.]

  • 20.

    A decrease in Supplies on hand.

    Positive

    Right!

    Supplies (on Hand) is a current asset account. A decrease in any asset account balance (other than Cash) is assumed to be a source of Cash, provided Cash, increased Cash, or have used less Cash than the amount of Supplies Expense shown on the income statement. All of these are considered to have a positive effect on Cash.

    [Because Supplies is a current asset, the increase in Cash will appear in the operating activities section of the statement of cash flows.]

    Negative

    Wrong.

    Supplies (on Hand) is a current asset account. A decrease in any asset account balance (other than Cash) is assumed to be positive for the company's Cash account. Also see the Positive answer.

  • 21.

    The proceeds from the sale of equipment formerly used in the business.

    Positive

    Right!

    Equipment is a long-term asset. A decrease in any asset account (other than Cash) is assumed to be a source of Cash, provided Cash, or increased Cash. All of these are positive effects on Cash.

    [The entire proceeds from the sale of the equipment will be shown in the investing activities section of the statement of cash flows.]

    Negative

    Wrong.

    Equipment is a long-term asset. A decrease in any asset account (other than Cash) is assumed to be a source of Cash, provided Cash, or increased Cash. All of these are positive effects on Cash.

  • 22.

    The Loss on the Sale of Equipment in the previous question.

    Positive

    Right!

    The Loss on the Sale of Equipment caused a decrease to the net income amount on the income statement. However, there was no decrease in Cash for this loss. Therefore, we need to add back (show an increase) to the net income amount appearing in the operating activities section.

    Negative

    Wrong.

    The Loss on the Sale of Equipment had already reduced the net income amount on the income statement. However, there was no decrease in Cash for this income statement item. Therefore you must add this amount back to the net income amount appearing in the operating activities section—a positive effect.

  • 23.

    An increase in the current liability Income Taxes Payable.

    Positive

    Right!

    Income Taxes Payable is a current liability. An increase in any liability account (or in stockholders' equity) is assumed to increase Cash or at least be favorable from a Cash point of view. If Income Taxes Payable increased, the company did not pay the entire amount of Income Tax Expense shown on the income statement. Since the starting point in the operating activities section is net income, you add back the increase in Income Taxes Payable.

    To assist in understanding the increase or decrease, you could substitute 'favorable effect on Cash' for increases in liabilities. (Substitute 'negative effect on Cash' for decreases in liabilities.) If a payable increases, it means the company did NOT pay all of the bills and that has a favorable effect on Cash.

    Another way to remember the effect is that the effect on Cash will be the SAME direction as a change in the liability account balance. An increase in any liability will be a positive amount/effect on the statement of cash flows (SCF). A decrease in any liability will be shown as a negative amount/effect on the SCF.

    [Because Income Taxes Payable is a current liability, the change will be shown in the operating activities section of the SCF.]

    Negative

    Wrong.

    Income Taxes Payable is a current liability. An increase in any liability account (or in stockholders' equity) is assumed to increase Cash or at least be favorable from Cash point of view. If Income Taxes Payable increased, the company did not pay the entire amount of Income Tax Expense shown on the income statement. Since the starting point in the operating activities section is net income, you add back the increase in Income Taxes Payable.

    To assist in understanding the increase or decrease, you could substitute 'favorable effect on Cash' for increases in liabilities. (Substitute 'negative effect on Cash' for decreases in liabilities.) If a payable increases, it means the company did NOT pay all of the bills and that has a favorable effect on Cash.

    Another way to remember the effect is: the effect on Cash will be the SAME direction as a change in the liability account balance. An increase in any liability will be a positive amount on the statement of cash flows (SCF). A decrease in any liability will be shown as a negative amount on the SCF.

  • 24.

    A decrease in Accounts Payable.

    Positive

    Wrong.

    Accounts Payable is a current liability account. It is assumed that a company had to use or decrease Cash in order to decrease any liability. You could also think of negative amounts on the statement of cash flows as being unfavorable from a Cash point of view. Decreasing a liability is unfavorable or negative as far as Cash is concerned.

    Another way to remember the effect is: the change in Cash will be in the SAME direction as a change in the liability account balance. An increase in any liability will be a positive amount on the statement of cash flows (SCF). A decrease in any liability will be shown as a negative amount on the SCF.

    Negative

    Right!

    Accounts Payable is a current liability account. It is assumed that a company had to use or decrease Cash in order to decrease any liability. You could also think of negative amounts on the statement of cash flows as being unfavorable from a Cash point of view. Decreasing a liability is unfavorable or negative as far as Cash is concerned.

    TIP: The change in Cash will be the SAME direction as a change in the LIABILITY account balance. An increase in any liability will be a positive amount on the statement of cash flows (SCF). A decrease in any liability will be shown as a negative amount on the SCF.

    [Because Accounts Payable is a current liability, the change will be shown in the operating activities section of the SCF.]

  • 25.

    An increase in Accounts Receivable.

    Positive

    Wrong.

    Accounts Receivable is a current asset. An increase in any asset (other than Cash) is assumed to have a negative effect on Cash. The change in Cash is the OPPOSITE sign of the change in the other ASSET'S balance.

    Negative

    Right!

    Accounts Receivable is a current asset. An increase in any asset (other than Cash) is assumed to have a negative effect on Cash. The change in Cash is the OPPOSITE sign of the change in the other ASSET'S balance.

    [Because Accounts Receivable is a current asset, the change appears in the operating activities section.]

  • 26.

    An increase in the current liability Warranty Liability.

    Positive

    Right!

    The change in Cash will be the SAME direction as the change in the balance of a LIABILITY account. In this case the Warranty Liability balance increased, so the effect on Cash shown on the statement of cash flows is also a positive amount.

    [Because Warranty Liability is a current liability, the change will appear in the operating activities section.]

    Negative

    Wrong.

    If a liability account increases, Cash is assumed to also increase. Recall that the effect on Cash is the same sign/direction as the change in the liability.

  • 27.

    Dividends declared and paid.

    Positive

    Wrong.

    Dividends decrease the company's amount of Cash.

    Negative

    Right!

    Dividends do decrease the company's Cash, which is a negative effect on Cash.

    [Because dividends affect a stockholders' equity account, dividends will be shown in the financing activities section as a negative amount.]

  • 28.

    Proceeds from the issuance of Preferred Stock.

    Positive

    Right!

    The proceeds received by the company for the new stock being issued will increase the company's Cash, a positive effect on Cash.

    [Because the transaction involves stockholders' equity, the amount will appear in the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows.]

    Negative

    Wrong.

    The company will be increasing its Cash by issuing new shares of stock. An increase to Cash is a positive effect.

  • 29.

    The Gain on the Sale of Equipment formerly used in the business.

    Positive

    Wrong.

    The Gain on Sale of Equipment was an increase to the net income on the income statement. On the statement of cash flows we need to subtract the gain from the net income so that only the cash from operating activities appears in the operating activities section. This subtraction or decrease will also prevent the double counting of the gain, since the entire proceeds from the sale are reported in the investing activities section.

    Negative

    Right!

    The Gain on Sale of Equipment was an increase to the net income on the income statement. On the statement of cash flows we need to subtract the gain from the net income so that only the cash from operating activities appears in the operating activities section. This subtraction or decrease will also prevent the double counting of the gain, since the entire proceeds from the sale are reported in the investing activities section.

  • 30.

    Positive

    Wrong.

    Negative

    Right!

    An increase in any asset (other than Cash) is assumed to have a negative effect on Cash. It is assumed that Cash was used or decreased.
