Question

While preparing Cash Flow Statement, the accountant of 'Rachana Ltd.', a financing company, included 'Interest received on loan' in financing activities. Was the correct in doing so? Give reason.

Solution

The accountant was wrong in his approach of showing 'Interest received on Loan' under 'Financing Activity'. Interest received on loan by a financing company is cash inflow from operating activities. So it is to be categorised under 'Cash Flow from Operating Activities'.
