The document outlines two methods for preparing a cash flow statement. The indirect method calculates cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net profit for non-cash items and changes in current assets and liabilities. Cash flow from investing and financing activities is also shown. The direct method reports the actual cash amounts received and paid for operating, investing and financing activities without adjustments to net income. Both methods calculate total cash flow for the period and reconcile to the cash balance at the beginning and end of the year.
