- November 25, 2016 at 5:33 pm #351487Hello Sir, At the cash flow statement, the increase at the finance lease obligation from the balance b/f to c/f represents a cash inflow – that is ok, whereas, the new finance lease (which supposed to be an increase) represents cash outflows !! for example: Non-current liabilities 31 March 2013 31 March 2012 
 8% loan notes 1,400 3,125
 Deferred tax 1,500 800
 Finance lease obligation 1,200 4,100 900 4,825
 –––––– ––––––
 Current liabilities
 Finance lease obligation 750 600Monty acquired additional plant under a finance lease that had a fair value of $1·5 million 
 this date it also revalued its property upwards by $2 million and transferred $650,000 of the resulting revaluation reserve this created to deferred tax. There were no disposals of non-current assets during the period.
 Prepare a statement of cash flows for Monty for the year ended 31 March 2013At the answer, the new finance lease of $1·5 million, considered as cash outflow (1,500) as followings :. 
 Balances b/f – current (600)
 – non-current (900)
 New finance lease (1,500)
 Balances c/f – current 750
 – non-current 1,200
 ––––––
 Balance cash repayment (1,050)
 ––––––my question is : why the New finance lease of (1,500) treated differently as cash outflow, whereas, the increased finance lease of (1200-900) and (750-600) treated as cash inflow? Thanks November 26, 2016 at 11:13 am #351607I am sorry, please ignore the question Thanks November 27, 2016 at 9:58 pm #352011OK. Hope you’ve managed to understand it all. Thanks
