and this...
Delta's SFP:
December 31, 2008 December 31, 2007
Share capital 2,000 1,200
Share premium 400 100
Finance lease liabilities (long-term portion) 3,000 4,000
Finance lease liabilities (short-term portion) 1,800 2,000
Note: During the year Delta has entered into a new finance lease agreement and recorded fixed assets worth of 1,000.
Required: Prepare a fragment of a statement of cash flows from financing activities.
Ask the Tutor ACCA FR
cash flows from financing activities
Share issue proceeds 1,100
Payments to finance lease creditors 2,200
Does that agree with the solution?
there's no solution for these questions, I'm afraid. I can see now how you arrived at 1,100, but why 2,200? we paid only 1,200 (1,000+200) on lease liabilities, I believe.
Put both brought forward liabilities into the credit side of a single T account (4,000 and 2,000)
Put both carry forward liabilities into the debit side of the same T account (3,000 and 1,800)
Put into the credit side of that same T account the 1,000 new finance lease liability
That gives us credits of 7,000 and debits of 4,800 - a missing figure on e debit side of 2,200
That entry MUST have been Dr Finance Lease Liabilities 2,200 Cr Cash 2,200
Ok?
yeah, now I see !!!
thank you so much, I think I'll try to employ T account in all my cash flow calculations now :)
That's a good idea. Last time I taught in your area (Uzbekistan) I remember telling the students that really the only time I found T accounts of immense value was in Cash Flow questions.
It is possible to do without - of course it is - but if there's any tiny element of doubt, then open a T account
