Answer» Solution :(i) FINANCIAL Enterprise : All thetransactions except (e) and (f) (i.e., Dividend paid to shareholdersbe classitied or shown as OPERATING Activities. It is so because Purchase andSale of Securities and also Borrowings and Advancing Loans are the principal revenue producing activities of a financial enterprise. Non financial Enterprise: All the transactions except (e) and (f) (i.e., Dividend paid to shareholders and Interest paid onborrowings respectively) shall be classified asInvesting Activities because these are not the principal revenue producing activities of the enterprise. Transactions (e) and (f) shall be classified as Financing Activities because these are related to activities that change the SIZE and composition of the owners' capital and borrowings. When does the Cash Flow Arise? Cash Flow arises when the net effect of a transaction either increases or decreases the amount of Cash and Cash EQUIVALENTS. It arises when a transaction affects either: 1. A Current Account (other than Cash and Cash Equivalents) on one hand and Cash and Cash Equivalents on the other hand, e.g., cash received from debtors (Trade Receivables), OR 2. A Non-Current Account on one hand and Cash and Cash Equivalents on the other hand e.g., purchase of goodwill, causes a change in cash position. |
