Hi sir,
Why the interest paid is deducted from operating activities instead of deducting from financing activities.
Ask the Tutor ACCA FA
Cash flow statement
The easy answer is because that is what is stated in the Accounting Standard!
It is because interest and dividends are paid out of the operating profits and so reduce the cash available from operating activities.
Thank u so much.
You are welcome :-)
