Cash flow statement may provide considerable information about what is really happening in a
business beyond that contained in either the income statement or the balance sheet. Analyzing
this statement should not present an intimidating task, instead it will quickly become obvious that
the benefits of understanding the sources and uses of a company’s cash far outweigh the costs of
undertaking some very straightforward analyses.
The Cash Flow Statement is divided into three distinct sections:
- Cash flow from operations
- Cash flow from investing activities
- Cash flow from financing activities
