Explanation of preparation of cash flow analysis .?
Ans: Meaning of cash flow analysis - Cash flow analysis is an important tool of financial analysis.
It is the process of understanding the change in position with respect to cash in the current year and the reasons
responsible for such a change.
The analysis also helps us to understand whether the investing and financing decision taken by the company
during the year are appropriate are not.
Cash flow analysis is presented in the form of a statement. Such a statement is called a cash flow statement
How much cash was spent on investment activities, such as purchase of new plant and machinery, purchase of
land?
The preparation of cash flow statement is similar to the preparation of fund flow statement.
It requires the identification of the sources of cash and the uses of cash. A source of cash is a transaction which
brings an inflow of cash. An application of cash is a transaction which leads to an outflow of cash. It may be
noted that the sources of cash increase the cash balance and applications of cash decrease the cash balance.
6. Write the assumptions of marginal costing. Differentiate between absorption costing and
marginal costing. Assumptions of marginal costing (all 7 points), Differences of marginal and
absorption costing (Includes all 8points) ?
Absorption Costing:
1. It is known as full costing. Both fixed and variable are included to ascertain the cost.
2. Different unit costs are obtained at different levels of output because of fixed expenses remaining
the same.
3. Difference between sales and total cost (marginal cost and fixed cost) is profit.
4. A portion of fixed cost is carried forward to the next period because closing stock of work-in-
progress and finished goods are valued at the cost of production, which is inclusive of fixed cost.
5. The apportionment of fixed expenses on an arbitrary basis gives rise to over or under absorption of
overheads
6. It affects managerial decisions in certain areas. E.g., whether to accept the export order or not,
whether to buy or manufacture, etc.
7. Costs are classified according to functional basis such as production cost, office and administrative
cost, and selling and distribution costs.
8. It fails to establish relationship of cost, volume, and profit.
Marginal Costing:
1. only variable costs are included. Fixed costs are recovered from contribution.
2. Marginal cost per unit remains same at different levels of output because variable expenses vary in
the same proportion in which output varies.
3. Difference between sales and marginal cost is contribution and difference between contribution and
fixed cost is profit or loss.
4. Stock of work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at marginal cost. Fixed cost of a particular
period is charged to that very period and is not carried over to the next period.
5. Products are charged only with variable cost, hence marginal costing does not lead to over or
under absorption of fixed overheads.
6. It is very helpful in taking managerial decisions. It considers the additional cost involved, assuming
fixed expenses to remain constant.
7. Costs are classified according to the behaviour of costs fixed costs and variable costs.
8. CVP relationship is an integral part of marginal costing.
