What figure would appear in the cash flow statement of CFS Ltd for the year ended.
31st December 2000 in respect of net cash flow for cash from operating activities?
A $125 B $145 C $215 D $235I got the answer as 145 meanwhile my book says 125. could someone help me please?
January 23, 2024 at 1:34 pm #698933I get the same, 145. The only way I could get to 125 is if the net current assets figure was in brackets, ie a net current liability position. Or possibly the figures are transposed and the question should be showing an increase in these net assets.
