Forums › Ask ACCA Tutor Forums › Ask the Tutor ACCA AAA Exams › AAA notes- CF forecast question
AAA OT on page 126 says:
Note that the cash flow statement should show no investment in long-term assets (and remember that it would only show payments to suppliers and employees if prepared under the direct method).
I understand that above refer to cash flow statement, not forecast right? and cash flow forecast should include investment in non current asset e.g. 2 years health and safety license to sell food let’s say for restaurant chain?
Thank you,
You have to read the solution in the context of the specific question – it is a not meant to be a generic statement that is universally true. Here it is with words added to spell out the context::
“Note that the cash flow statement IN THE 2018 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS should show no investment in long-term assets BECAUSE THERE IS NO CAPITAL EXPENDITURE IN THE 2018 FORECAST.”.
