Cash Flow Ratios

Importance of statement of cash flow: A statement of cash flow allows the financial statement users to determine the portion of the income generated in cash, cash availability, and the ability to generate cash in the future period.

Cash flow ratios:

$\begin{array}{rcl}\mathrm{Current}\mathrm{cash}\mathrm{debt}\mathrm{coverage}& =& \frac{\mathrm{Cash}\mathrm{flow}\mathrm{from}\mathrm{operating}\mathrm{activities}}{\mathrm{Average}\mathrm{current}\mathrm{liabilities}}\\ & =& \frac{\$19,200}{{\displaystyle \frac{\$30,000+\$30,000}{2}}}\\ & =& 0.64\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{rcl}\mathrm{Cash}\mathrm{debt}\mathrm{coverage}& =& \frac{\mathrm{Cash}\mathrm{flow}\mathrm{from}\mathrm{operation}}{\mathrm{Total}\mathrm{liabilities}}\\ & =& \frac{\$19,200}{\$71,000}\\ & =& 0.27\end{array}$
