The following informations are provided:

  • Patent written off: Rs.10,000
  • Purchase of fixed assets: Rs.2,00,000
  • Sales of fixed assets: Rs.15,000
  • Depreciation on fixed assets: Rs.90,000
  • Issue of share capital: Rs.2,00,000
  • Net profit of the year: Rs.1,80,000
  • Profit on sale of fixed assets: Rs.6,000

Required: i) Funds from operation [3] ii) Funds Flow Statement [2]

Answer

i) Funds from Operation (FFO)

Funds from operation (FFO) is calculated by adjusting the net profit for non-cash items and changes in working capital. The formula is:

Given data:

  • Net profit = Rs. 1,80,000
  • Depreciation = Rs. 90,000
  • Profit on sale of fixed assets = Rs. 6,000

Since no information is provided about changes in working capital (current assets and current liabilities), we assume no change in working capital for this calculation.


ii) Funds Flow Statement

A Funds Flow Statement shows the movement of funds (cash and cash equivalents) between different activities of a business. It is divided into three main sections:

  1. Funds from Operating Activities
  2. Funds from Investing Activities
  3. Funds from Financing Activities

Step 1: Calculate Funds from Operating Activities

We already calculated Funds from Operations (FFO) as Rs. 2,64,000.

Step 2: Calculate Funds from Investing Activities

Investing activities include purchases and sales of fixed assets, as well as intangible assets like patents.

  • Purchase of fixed assets = Rs. 2,00,000 (outflow)
  • Sales of fixed assets = Rs. 15,000 (inflow)
  • Patent written off = Rs. 10,000 (outflow, as it reduces assets)

Step 3: Calculate Funds from Financing Activities

Financing activities include the issue of share capital.

  • Issue of share capital = Rs. 2,00,000 (inflow)

Step 4: Prepare the Funds Flow Statement

Particulars Amount (Rs.)
Funds from Operating Activities 2,64,000
Funds from Investing Activities -1,95,000
Funds from Financing Activities 2,00,000
Total Funds Flow Rs. 2,69,000

Final Answer:

  • Funds from Operation (FFO) = Rs. 2,64,000
  • Funds Flow Statement shows a total funds flow of Rs. 2,69,000.
