The sources of funds can be classified into three categories: operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.<\/p>\n<p>Operating activities are the day-to-day activities of a business that generate revenues and expenses. Examples of operating activities include selling goods and services, collecting cash from customers, and paying suppliers.<\/p>\n<p>Investing activities are the activities that involve the purchase and sale of long-term assets, such as land, buildings, and equipment. Examples of investing activities include purchasing a new piece of equipment and selling an old piece of equipment.<\/p>\n<p>Financing activities are the activities that involve the raising and using of capital. Examples of financing activities include issuing shares, borrowing money, and repaying loans.<\/p>\n<p>The following are the correct statements as regards the sources of funds for a Funds Flow Statement:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Increase in working capital<\/strong> is a source of funds because it represents an increase in the amount of cash and cash equivalents that a company has available.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Issuing equity shares<\/strong> is a source of funds because it represents an increase in the amount of capital that a company has available.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Charging depreciation on fixed assets<\/strong> is a source of funds because it represents a non-cash expense that reduces the company&#8217;s taxable income.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The following are incorrect statements as regards the sources of funds for a Funds Flow Statement:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Decrease in working capital<\/strong> is a use of funds because it represents a decrease in the amount of cash and cash equivalents that a company has available.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Writing off the intangible\/fictitious assets<\/strong> is a use of funds because it represents a non-cash expense that reduces the company&#8217;s net income.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I hope this helps!
