Question
wellington Ski Supplies Pty Ltd completed its first year of operations on 30 June 2022. Its incomestatement showed that the business had revenues of 80 000, including Bad debt expenses of 43,000 and 1000. There has been no direct write-off of accounts receivable.RequiredCalculate net cash provided by operating activities using the direct method
Solution
To calculate the net cash provided by operating activities using the direct method, we need to adjust the revenues and expenses from the accrual basis of accounting to the cash basis. Here are the steps:
-
Start with the revenues of 170,000.
-
Next, calculate cash paid for operating expenses. The total operating expenses were 1,000 of bad debt expense. Since bad debt expense is a non-cash expense, we need to add it back. So, the adjusted operating expenses are 1,000 = $79,000.
-
However, we also need to consider the change in accounts payable, which are related to operating expenses. Accounts payable increased by 33,000 to the adjusted operating expenses. So, cash paid for operating expenses is 33,000 = $112,000.
-
Finally, subtract the cash paid for operating expenses from the cash received from customers to get the net cash provided by operating activities. So, 112,000 = $58,000.
Therefore, the net cash provided by operating activities is $58,000.
