Feedback

The indirect method involves reporting net cash flow from operating activities; it is computed by adjusting net income to remove the effect of all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of future operating cash receipts and payments. The sum of operating, investing, and financing activities must equal the net change in cash.

2. Cash flow from operations computed under the direct method is
preferred by investors as it provides more information by showing actual inflows and outflows of cash.
