The 2021 comparative balance sheet and 2021 income statement of Gumdrop Fall Ltd, have just been prepared and presented to the owners by the company’s Accountant. After doing an examination of the financial information received, it was eventually discovered that there are some figures in the balance sheet that were erroneously omitted due to an oversight by the accountant who is not available to fix the problem due to his unavoidable absence from work. Also, they are concerned about the movement in the company’s cash and cash equivalent given that the balance sheet does not show or explain the reason or reasons why there was an increase or decrease in this area.


The company decided to use the
indirect method
to prepare the statement of cash flows and it is expected that this should be able to provide the needed clarity required by the owners.
