Which of the following would be considered a "source" of cash for purposes of constructing a statement of cash flows?
Multiple Choice
Dividends paid to the company's own shareholders.
Increase in prepaid expenses
Decrease in accounts payable
Increase in accrued lists.
Option (d) - Increase in accrued liabilities
Analysis is as follows:
Accrued liabilities amount has increased while comparing the same with the value at the beginning of the period. By this we can analyse that the liability to pay has increased because the additional cash/fund has been taken from the respective party and agreed to pay later at determined date. As a result there is an inflow of cash (source of cash) to the entity.
