denverseven asked:


My homework question asks to classify the following events into cash flow from operations, investing or financing. I’m having trouble with the following ones:

1) Bought shares in another company for $200,000.
2) Over the year the company increased its overdraft at the bank $15,500.
3) December 31, paid $25,000 for six months interest expense on the bonds.

Thanks for all your help in advance

cash flow opportunity investment?

cash flow
bluejordann asked:


After working in the corporate world for 10 years, I have saved a good chunk of change.
I was thinking of getting out of the rat race and investing in real estate, and renting out condos, and living off of the cash flow.
Any other cash flow ideas, where I can live off of the cash flow, and move out of the concrete jungle?

cash flow
Meul Gulabsinh asked:


I have a net cash flow for 10 years and a capital outlay of 30M in year 0. Question also includes working capital of 10M in year 0 and additional 5M in year 3, with these recovered in the end of the project.

Sales Revenue Vs. Cash Flow?

cash flow
asked:


I was wondering about purchasing this business but a little quick question that intrigued me. It shows their Sales Revenue is $111,840 and their Cash Flow is $26,916. So how much actual net income is the company making after all the expenses each year. Do you subtract the Cash Flow from the Sales Revenue to get the net income? I would think that the cash flow part is: paying bills, utilities, etc and that sales revenue of course would be from the services the company provides.
