Hi Stephen
Can you suggest what items should be recognised in cash flow statement if questions comes related to pension (benefit and contribution) and share based payment ( option and SARS)
Kind regards
SyedJune 5, 2022 at 3:19 pm #657445Pension:
1. Operating cash flows – ADD BACK WHATEVER HAS BEEN CHARGED IN THE P&L (non-cash item)
2. Operating cash flows – DEDUCT CONTRIBUTIONS PAIDSBP
Equity settled – add back SBP expense
Cash settled – add back SBP expenseIf options / SARs are exercised there will be additional cash flows – I would just do what it says in the question.

Just to clear myself what I understand from your answer is
Cash flow from pension scheme
Present and past service charges and finance cost needs to be added back. Contribution paid needs to be minus from operating cash flow
Cash flow from share based payment
Expenses related to them needs to be added back to operating cash flow
Correct me if I am wrong
Also can you please explain what will be the impact on cash flow if option and SARS are exercisedKind regards

SARs – company pays out cash – operating outflow
Option – Company receives cash when employee pays exercise price – financing inflow
