Notes:
PR
• The cash flow statement with summary attached is effectively a 6-month cash budget
showing the cash received, cash paid each month and the resulting month-end balances.
• It is necessary to separate sales and purchase transactions into cash and on-credit, and to
identify clearly the month of receipt and payment.
O
• Commission is paid in the month after the sale is made, and all other cash flows are clearly
indicated and allocated to specific months.
FD
• Note that the format of the cash flow statement brings out key figures – for management
decision and control. For example:
• month-end balances – assist in the control of liquidity;
• cash deficiencies – identify how much must be financed;
O
• early warning – allows management to approach appropriate sources;
• cash surpluses – identify amounts to be invested on the best terms.

Notes:
• This statement shows net assets of £75,200.
• Make up: premises £76,000 less the negative cash balance £800.
• The negative cash balance indicates the need for overdraft arrangements.
• The statement is based on cash flow concept:
• It ignores accrual-based figures (£36,900 less £25,250).
• Accruals are not regarded as real assets and liabilities.
• Critics of the cash flow concept would maintain that its utility has therefore been
seriously diminished.
(iv) Letter to the bank requesting an overdraft facility
PR
• The maximum overdraft facility of £28,800,
• will be required at the end of January.
• will be eliminated by July.
• Overdraft will fall progressively as per the cash budget.
O
• It might be practical to request a limit of £30,000,
• for the full 6-month period.
FD
• reducing it to £15,000 thereafter to allow for contingencies. The facility is only to be
called on as required.
• Refer to the cash budget to support the request and
O
• confirm that it is based on the most likely scenario.
• agree to a repayment schedule.
C
• Specify that collateral security is available in the form of premises if it should be required.
• If not an existing customer
• give outline details of business background.
• explain future plans.

Note:
No entries will be made for the 20X0/X1 local taxes that are paid in Feb 20X2 – this situation
arose because Jane Parker had assumed that the business would only pay the taxes from the start
of the tax year, e.g. 1.4.20X1.
However, there will be an entry in the profit and loss account and the statement of financial
position.
