QUESTIONS Q4-1 Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that firms acquire with temporarily idle cash to earn interest on these excess funds. To qualify as a cash equivalent, an investment must (1) be easily convertible into a known cash amount and (2) be close enough to maturity so that its market value is not sensitive to interest rate changes (generally, investments with initial maturities of three months or less). Three examples of cash equivalents are Treasury bills, commercial paper, and money market funds. Q4-2 Cash equivalents are included with cash in a statement of cash flows because the purchase and sale of such investments are considered to be part of a firm's overall management of cash rather than a source or use of cash. Similarly, as statement users evaluate cash flows, it may matter very little to them whether the cash is on hand, deposited in a bank account, or invested in cash equivalents. Q4-3 Operating activities Inflow: Cash received from customers Outflow: Cash paid to suppliers Investing activities Inflow: Sale of equipment Outflow: Purchase of stocks and bonds Financing activities Inflow: Issuance of common stock Outflow: Payment of dividends Q4-4 a.

Operating (direct method, not shown separately under indirect method); inflow. Q4-5 This is a noncash investing and financing event. It must be reported in a supplementary schedule to the statement of cash flows. 4-2 Financial Accounting, 3rd Edition

Q4-6 Noncash investing and financing transactions are disclosed as supplemental information to a statement of cash flows because a secondary objective of cash flow reporting is to present information about investing and financing activities. Noncash investing and financing transactions, generally, affect future cash flows. Issuing bonds payable to acquire equipment, for example, requires future cash payments for interest and principal on the bonds. On the other hand, converting bonds payable into common stock eliminates future cash payments related to the bonds. Knowledge of these types of events, therefore, should be helpful to users of cash flow data who wish to assess a firm's future cash flows. Q4-7 A statement of cash flows helps external users assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of future cash flows to the enterprise. These assessments help users evaluate their own future cash receipts from their investments in, or loans to, the firm. A statement of cash flows shows the periodic cash effects of a firm's operating, investing, and financing activities. Distinguishing among these different categories of cash flows helps users compare, evaluate, and predict cash flows. With cash flow information, creditors and investors are better able to assess a firm's ability to settle its liabilities and pay its dividends. Over time, the statement of cash flows permits users to observe and analyze management's investing and financing policies. A statement of cash flows also provides information useful in evaluating a firm's financial flexibility (which is its ability to generate cash to respond to unanticipated needs and opportunities). Q4-8 The direct method presents the net cash flow from operating activities by showing the major categories of operating cash receipts and cash payments (such as cash received from customers, cash paid to employees and suppliers, cash paid for interest, and cash paid for income taxes). The indirect (or reconciliation) method, in contrast, presents the net cash flow from operating activities by applying a series of adjustments to the accrual net income to convert it to a cash basis. Q4-9 Under the indirect method, depreciation is added to net income because, as a noncash expense, it was deducted in computing net income. Adding depreciation to net income, therefore, eliminates it from the cash-basis income amount. Amortization and depletion expenses are handled the same way. Q4-10 Under the indirect method, the $98,000 cash received from the sale of the land will appear in the cash flows from investing activities section of the statement of cash flows. In addition, the $28,000 gain from the sale will be deducted from net income as one of the adjustments made to determine the net cash flow from operating activities. Solutions Manual, Chapter 4 4-3

Q4-11 Net income $ 88,000 Add (deduct) items to convert net income to cash basis Depreciation 6,000 Accounts receivable decrease 13,000 Inventory increase (9,000) Accounts payable decrease (3,500) Income tax payable increase 1,500 Net cash provided by operating activities $ 96,000 Q4-12 The separate disclosures required for a company using the indirect method in the statement of cash flows are (1) cash paid during the year for interest (net of amount capitalized) and for income taxes, (2) all noncash investing and financing transactions, and (3) the policy for determining which highly liquid, short-term investments are treated as cash equivalents. Q4-13 The statement of cash flows will show a positive net cash flow from operating activities if operating cash receipts exceed operating cash payments. This could happen, for example, if noncash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) exceed the net loss. It would also happen if operating cash receipts exceed sales by more than the loss or if operating cash payments are less than accrual expenses by more than the loss (or some combination of these events). Q4-14 Sales $925,000 + Accounts receivable decrease 14,000 = Cash received from customers $939,000 Q4-15 Wages expense $ 86,000 + Wages payable decrease 1,100 = Cash paid to employees $ 87,100 Q4-16 Advertising expense $ 43,000 + Prepaid advertising increase 1,600 = Cash paid for advertising $ 44,600 Q4-17 Under the direct method, the $5,100 cash received from the sale of equipment will appear in the cash flows from investing activities section of the statement of cash flows. Q4-18 The separate disclosures required for a company using the direct method in the statement of cash flows are (1) a reconciliation of net income to net cash flow from operating activities, (2) all noncash investing and financing transactions, and (3) the policy for determining which highly liquid, short-term investments are treated as cash equivalents. 4-4 Financial Accounting, 3rd Edition

Q4-19 The operating-cash-flow-to-current-liabilities ratio is calculated by dividing net cash flow from operating activities by average current liabilities. This ratio is a measure of a firm's ability to liquidate its current liabilities. Q4-20 The operating-cash-flow-to-capital-expenditures ratio is calculated by dividing a firm's cash flow from operating activities by its annual capital expenditures. A ratio below 1.00 means that the firm's current operating activities are not providing enough cash to cover the capital expenditures. A ratio above 1.0 is normally considered a sign of financial strength. Solutions Manual, Chapter 4 4-5

EXERCISES E4-32 (20 minutes) a. Merck: $3,364/$5,618 = 0.60 Pfizer: $18,238/$24,422 = 0.75 Abbot Labs: $6,995/$10,347 = 0.68 b. Merck: $3,364 ($747 $44) = $2,661 Pfizer: $18,238 ($1,701 $0) = $16,537 Abbott Labs: $6,995 ($1,288 $0) = $5,707 c. None of the firms has sufficient cash flow to cover their current liabilities although none of the ratios is of major concern. Pfizer is the largest of these three companies and has relatively more cash left over after capital expenditures to consider using on other activities that could strengthen the firm s operating or financial position. Given that these firms are of different sizes and have different research program success, it is difficult to generalize further. E4-33 (20 minutes) a. Wal-Mart: $23,147/$56,934 = 0.41 General Electric: $48,601/$246,925 = 0.20 Exxon: $59,725/$53,706 = 1.11 b. Wal-Mart: $23,147 ($11,499 $714) = $12,362 General Electric: $48,601 ($16,010 $10,975) = $43,566 Exxon: $59,725 ($19,318 $5,985) = $46,392 c. General Electric reports substantial current liabilities and its operating cash flow produces only 20% of what is needed to cover its obligations. Exxon appears to be in the best position, with a substantial amount of its operational cash flows available for dividends, expansion, and other business pursuits. The situation has improved as Exxon s profits have increased substantially with higher oil prices. Extra cash does not earn any return, which provides Exxon a problem or, better, an opportunity. Because the firm is so large, it is unlikely that an acquirer may look with interest at the large cash position of the company. Solutions Manual, Chapter 4 4-11

(c) The cash balance at the end of the period is $31,313,000. (d) It is not unusual for companies like Oakley to borrow money from banks for short periods of time. For example, these borrowings may be needed to finance seasonal fluctuations in working capital. In many cases, cash might be borrowed and then repaid before the end of the accounting period, and consequently, never be reported on the year-end balance sheet. By presenting the amount borrowed and the amount repaid in the cash flow statement (rather than merely the net increase or decrease), the financial statements provide investors and creditors with potentially useful information about Oakley s short-term financing needs. The net change in bank borrowings is an increase of $22,538,000 ($254,211,000 - $231,673,000). Solutions Manual, Chapter 4 4-13

P4-51 (45 minutes) a. Depreciation is a noncash expense that is deducted in the computation of net income. The depreciation add-back zeros this expense out of the income statement to focus on cash profitability. The positive amount for depreciation does not mean that the company is generating cash from depreciation, a common misconception. It is merely an adjustment to remove that expense from the computation of profit. b. The positive amount relating to merchandise inventories indicates that the dollar amount of inventories on hand has declined during the period. This is positive if decline is the result of the elimination of excess inventories, but is worrisome if the company is reducing inventories below the level necessary to maintain its competitive position in an effort to temporarily boost its operating cash flow. c. The $4.7 billion outflow for investing activities relates to the purchase of property, plant and equipment (PPE) and short-term investments. The company is growing its infrastructure and building liquidity, both of which are positive (provided that its PPE purchases are for new stores in good locations). d. Staples operates businesses in 26 countries outside of the U.S. including businesses in Europe, Asia, South America, Australia, and Canada. This means that some of its cash transactions occur in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. This fact requires the company to hold cash in other currencies that may be revalued relative to the dollar from one period to the next. When foreign cash balances are revalued in foreign exchange markets relative to the U.S. dollar, the dollar value of the company s cash balance changes even though there was no actual cash flow. Hence, this exchange rate effect is listed in the cash flow statement to explain the change in the cash balance. e. Although net cash decreased during the period, Staples presents a healthy cash flow picture for the year. It generated almost $1.7 billion of operating cash flow and raised $2.5 billion through financing transactions but spent $4.7 billion to grow its infrastructure. Solutions Manual, Chapter 4 4-27

The positive amount for depreciation does not mean that the company is generating cash from depreciation, a common misconception. It is merely an adjustment to remove that expense from net income to convert profit to cash flow. b. Share based compensation expense is deducted when calculating net income similar to cash compensation.

Generally speaking, compensation cost is classified as part of operating activities whether or not the compensation is paid in cash. c. In a sale-leaseback transaction, a long-term asset is sold and then immediately leased (or rented) from the party it was sold to. The transaction is considered to be a financing transaction, so the proceeds from the sale are listed as financing cash flows. This is because there is no net change in assets (the original asset is replaced with a capital lease asset) but long-term liabilities (in the form of capital lease obligations) are increased. Any gain recognized in the income statement on a sale-leaseback transaction is noncash and nonoperating and must be deducted when calculating cash flow from operating activities. (Gains on the sale of the asset are normally deferred and amortized over the term of the lease.) d. Free cash flow ($ millions): $1,521 $923 = -$2,444. Southwest s operating cash flow is negative, as is its free cash flow. e. Southwest s cash flow from operating activities is negative, as is its cash flow from investing activities. It generated a positive cash flow of $1,654 million from financing activities. As a result, the net decrease in cash was $845 million. Southwest appears to be strong enough to withstand a reduction in cash of this magnitude, especially given that it has a record (in 2007 and 2006) of reporting positive cash flows from operations. To be thorough in analyzing Southwest s liquidity and solvency, one would want to ask why operating cash flows were negative. The cash flow statement is useful here. The largest negative adjustment is for a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. This adjustment is considerably larger than others listed, and to better understand what it represents, one would need to search the notes to find an explanation. As it turns out, a substantial portion of this adjustment was to pay amounts owed to counterparties for fuel derivatives. Hence, we suspect that this is a nonrecurring cash outflow. In its 2009 cash flow statement (released after the text was completed), Southwest reported positive cash flow from operating activities of $985 million. 4-42 Financial Accounting, 3rd Edition
