True/False


Topic: Cash and Cash Equivalents
UV
LO: 1
1. The statement of cash flows encompasses only a firm’s cash because cash equivalents are really
marketable securities, which are short-term investments.

maturities, they are treated like cash.

Topic: Sections in Statement of Cash Flows
LO: 1

?_
categories.

Answer: False
Rationale: The three sections are operating, investing and financing.
AP
Topic: Sections in Statement of Cash Flows
LO: 3, 4
3. Information about noncash investing and financing activities must be disclosed in a schedule that is
separate from the statement of cash flows.

transactions that required an actual cash outlay.


Topic: Direct versus Indirect Statement of Cash Flows
LO: 2
OV
4. Two different methods of determining and presenting the net cash flow from operating activities are
the direct method and the reconciliation method.
