You will have to say which question you are writing about, otherwise it is impossible for me to answer.

Have you actually watched the free lecture? Operating profit is before charging the interest expense. Interest paid comes below cash generated from operations on the statement of cash flows. Interest received appears under cash flows from investing activities. I go through all of this in the lecture.

1.we add investment income in operating activities. so can u give me examples of investment income ? sir, are interest expense and interest paid different??

Investment income is interest received or dividends received. Interest expense is the actual charge for the year. Interest paid is the cash actually paid.
