What’s up with this “Winning in the Cash Flow Business” and other programs like it?
Sean asked:
Are these programs to make money real or is it all just a scam? They say people make thousands or dollars from doing the smallest amount of work and in barely any time at all….I just don’t buy it….What do you think? Is it possible for this to happen? Is it just rare? Or are all of these “get rich quick” programs just scams?

Which of the following does NOT represent an outflow of cash and therefore would NOT be reported on the statement of cash flows as a use of cash?
A) Purchase of noncurrent assets
B) Purchase of treasury stock
C) Discarding an asset that had been fully depreciated
D) Payment of cash dividends
I am stuck, I am struggling between A or C and I am just not sure, can some please help me with this?
Thanks a bunch

In valuating a cash flow, is discounting always necessary?
NeedHelp asked:
Let’s say there is a project that requires an initial investment, and then it pays out (unequal) payments over 30 years. I want to find the return on investment, specifically how many times over I get my money back (a return multiple). If I set up a cash flow, adjust all payments for inflation, sum them up, and divide it by the investment, is this an appropriate way to determine the return? And how would this differ from applying a discount rate and finding the NPV?

Income Statement versus Statement of Cash Flow. What’s the difference?
Mr P asked:
If I am correct, a Statement of Cash Flow shows Revenue and Expenses; while an Income statement shows the same thing? Am I correct? Don’t see the difference between the two and when one would be more helpful to a firm that the other?!
Can’t Statements be projections or actuals, and Cash Flow be actual or projected?
