(Accounts Payable, Accrued Liabilities, Income Tax Payable etc. (Accounts Receivable, Prepaid Expenses, Inventory etc.) (Depreciation, Depletion & Amortization Expense) The following is the indirect method formula to calculate net cash flow from operating activities: Since the income statement is prepared on accrual basis in which revenue is recognized when earned and not when received therefore net income does not represent the net cash flow from operating activities and it is necessary to adjust earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) for those items which effect net income although no actual cash is paid or received against them. In indirect method, the net income figure from the income statement is used to calculate the amount of net cash flow from operating activities. Here we will study the indirect method to calculate cash flows from operating activities. The first section of a cash flow statement, known as cash flow from operating activities, can be prepared using two different methods known as the direct method and the indirect method.
