Fund Flow Statement Analysis7.2 MEANING & OBJECTIVES OF FUND FLOW

STATEMENT ANALYSIS

A report on the movement of funds or working capital. In a narrow sense the term fundmeans cash and the fund flow statement depicts the cash receipts and cash disbursements/payments. It highlights the changes in the cash receipts and payments as a cash flowstatement in addition to the cash balances i.e., opening cash balance and closing cash

balance. Contrary to the earlier, the fund means working capital i.e., the differencesbetween the current assets and current liabilities.

The term flow denotes the change. Flow of funds means the change in funds or inworking capital. The change on the working capital leads to the net changes taken placeon the working capital i.e., especially due to either increase or decrease in the workingcapital. The change in the volume of the working capital due to numerous transactions.Some of the transactions may lead to increase or decrease the volume of workingcapital. Some other transactions neither registers an increase nor decrease in the volumeof working capital.

According Foulke A statement of source and application of funds is a technical device designedto analyse the changes to the financial condition of a business enterprise in between two dates

STATEMENT

Steps in the preparation of Fund Flow Statement:

Second step is the preparation of Non- Current A/c items-Changes in the volumeof Non current a/cs have to be prepared only in order to quantify the flow fund i-eeither sources or application of fund.

Third step is the preparation Adjusted Profit& Loss A/c, which already elaborately

What is the role of the fund from operation generated?

How the raised funds applied into business?

How the decrease in working capital was applied?

What is the mode of raising of financial resources for an increase in the working

capital?

7.4.3 Facilitation through Financial Planning

anticipate the future requirement of financial resources. It guides the management to

prioritize the application in the future to the tune of scarce resources.

for ManagersAdditional information

During the year machine costing Rs.10,000 (accumulated depreciation Rs.3,000) was

sold for Rs.5,000 . The provision for depreciation against machinery as on 1-1-1986 was

Rs.25,000 and on 31-12-1986 Rs.40,000 Net profit for the year 1986 amounted to

Rs.45,000. You are required to prepare funds flow statement (M.Com MKU April 1980).

i.e., to find out the Gross value of the assets, in other words Original cost of the assets to

be found out at the moment of purchase.

The ultimate aim is to find out the original cost of the machinery for the preparation of

the machinery account:

Before preparing the Machinery account, the worth of the sale transaction of the

machinery should be found out .

Original cost of the Machinery Rs.10,000

7.5 LET US SUM UP

Normally, Balance sheet reveals the status of the firm only at the end of the year, not at

the beginning of the year. It never discloses the changes in between the value position of

the firm at two different time periods/ dates. A report on the movement of funds or

working capital. In a narrow sense, the term fund means cash and the fund flow

statement depicts the cash receipts and cash disbursements/payments. The projected

fund flow statement from the past performance facilitates the firm to anticipate the

future requirement of financial resources. It guides the management to prioritize the

application in the future to the tune of scarce resources.
