Answer 2

The cash flows from operating activities section of the statement of cash flows using the direct method is $3866.

The cash flows under the direct method will be:

Cash received from customers = 445 + 20720 - 538 = 20,813

Less: Cash paid for inventory =  (73-87+9110) = (9,096)

Less: Salaries Paid = (17-32+4090) =  (4,075)

Less: Accounts Paid = (228-245) = ( 17)

Less: Rent Paid= (14-7+2,830) = (2,837)

Less: Insurance Paid (10-28+940 = (922)                                                

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities = $3,866

The cashflows under the indirect method will be:

Net Loss = (1,440)  

Increase in Inventory (73-87) = (14)  

Decrease in Receivable (538-445) = 93

Increase in accounts payable (228 - 245)  = (17)

Increase in salaries payable  (17 - 32) = 15

Decrease in rent payable = (14-7) = 7

Decrease in Prepaid Rent = (11-8) = (3)

Increase in Prepaid Insurance (10 - 28) = (18)  

Net Cash used in operations = (1,337)
