Assume the balance of cash at the beginning of the period is $4,300.
Required:
1. Calculate the ending balance of cash.
2. Prepare a statement of cash flows.

Answer 1

To calculate the ending balance of cash, add the inflows and subtract the outflows. The ending balance of cash is $900. To prepare a statement of cash flows, categorize the cash transactions into operating, investing, and financing activities.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the ending balance of cash, we need to calculate the total cash inflows and subtract the total cash outflows. Starting with the beginning balance of cash ($4,300), we add the cash received from sales of products ($36,500), cash received from the bank for a long-term loan ($41,500), and cash received from the sale of an unused warehouse ($12,300). Next, we subtract the cash paid to purchase factory equipment ($46,500), cash paid to merchandise suppliers ($11,300), cash paid to workers ($23,300), cash paid for advertisement ($3,300), and cash paid for dividends to stockholders ($5,300).

Adding the inflows and subtracting the outflows, we can calculate the ending balance of cash. The cash inflows total $90,600 ($36,500 + $41,500 + $12,300) and the cash outflows total $89,700 ($46,500 + $11,300 + $23,300 + $3,300 + $5,300). Subtracting the outflows from the inflows, the ending balance of cash is $900 ($90,600 - $89,700).

To prepare a statement of cash flows, we categorize the cash transactions into operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. The operating activities include cash received from the sale of products and services to customers, cash paid to suppliers, and cash paid to workers. The investing activities include the cash received from the sale of the unused warehouse and the cash paid to purchase factory equipment. The financing activities include the cash received from the bank for a long-term loan and the cash paid for dividends to stockholders.
