[11]
hello everyone hi welcome to the channel of Wallstreetmojo friends today we are
[16]
going to discuss a tutorial on cash flow from investing activity you're going to
[20]
learn some formulas and some of the top examples on the same so let's begin at
[25]
the very inception cash flow from the investing activity it provides
[28]
information of the cash flow or cash inflow and you can say cash outflow
[34]
related to the poachers in the sales of the assets property plant equipment
[38]
loans made to the suppliers or one receipt from the customers in the
[41]
payment related to very important merges and acquisition or known as M&A in a
[48]
nutshell we can say that the cash flow from the investing activity reports the
[51]
purchase and the sale of long-term investments
[58]
and property in plants and equipment so in this article we are going to look at
[63]
a couple of things let's begin from the initial portion the first is cash flow
[69]
from the investing activity as a part of what is investments so cash flow from
[75]
the investment includes all the transaction involving acquiring selling
[78]
long term investments property plants and equipments this items are found in
[82]
the non current or portion of balance sheet non current portion of balance
[88]
sheet so it includes a purchase of the plant property equipments which is your
[94]
cash outflow then it includes a sale or for again property plant and equipment
[101]
which is again your cash inflow that this is your purchase this is your sale
[106]
then you have investment in JV investment in joint venture and
[111]
affiliates that is a cash outflow payments in business that have been
[116]
acquired so you can just write takeovers that will be again your cash outflow
[121]
then proceed from the sale of asset that will be your cash inflow and finally
[128]
investment in marketable security which would be a cash outflow so it is always
[134]
easier to understand when we create some questions and then answer them so here
[138]
are some of the few questions that when answered would help us to understand the
[142]
topic in a much easier manner the first and the foremost question is that what
[146]
happens with the cash account of the company when they have purchased land
[152]
and the next question that comes into mind what happens to the cash account of
[157]
the company when it has been the land the when the sale of land happens so
[164]
when we see answer to the question number 1 in the case one the cash
[167]
account would decrease okay the cash account would decrease and as
[173]
the company would need to pay some cash for the land purchase double entry
[177]
system of accounting would lead to increase in the in the assets account so
[183]
in this case the account under consideration is property plant
[186]
equipment right the next is a sale of land so in this case the cash account
[191]
would increase as the company would cash get the cash for the land sold and the
[197]
double-entry system of the accounting would lead to the decrease in the assets
[201]
account so in this case the asset account on the Constitution is property
[204]
plant and equipment so cash flow accounting cash flow from investment an example
[210]
will be taking at the basic one let's assume that there is mr. X I'll come to
[215]
the next sheet let's assume that there is mr. X he starts a new business has
[219]
planned that at the end of the month he'll prepare his financial statements
[223]
like in the income statement balance sheet and cash flow statement so in the
[228]
1st month what happens is that there was no revenue in the 1st month and no
[232]
such operating expense hence the income statement will show that income
[235]
statement will show us a 0 so in the cash flow from the investing activity
[239]
will be no activity 2 hence it will again remain 0 so the investing
[244]
activity will be shown as 0 in the 2nd month let's say the
[250]
company did some investments in the land and property land and property let's say
[256]
during the month amounting to 1 lakh this is a cash outflow hence it as it
[263]
should be negative and in the cash flow from the investing activity so you can
[268]
say the cash flow from the investing activity over here is going to be 1
[272]
lakh so let's uh calculate the cash flow from
[277]
the investments and let's calculate the cash flow and an investment when we have
[280]
the balance sheet data as you can see this is a basic example balance sheet
[285]
non-current assets details are given the total assets date data is given and so
[289]
on and so forth with other details so let's begin with our with our
[294]
calculation over here we'll assume that a with the gain on the sale of the land
[300]
let's assume that the gain on the sale of land is going to be 20,000 so let's
[306]
calculate the cash flow from the investment as we already know that the
[310]
the cash flow from the investment in relation in related to the non current
[314]
portion of the balance sheet so there are 2 main items in the non current
[317]
assets you can say the first one is land and property another one is plant and
[327]
equipments V&E got it so the first one is a cash flow from the sale of cash
[336]
flow from sale of land now when we talk about cash flow from the sale of land
[344]
decrease in the land they'll be first will the decrease in the land and gain from
[349]
the sale of the assets so from this data as you can see 80,000 less 70,000 and
[357]
then you'll be adding any gain if any which was 20,000
[363]
right which we just discussed gained from the sale is 20,000 so that's that
[367]
will be the cash flow from the sale of the land the 2nd is the cash outflow
[371]
cash outflow from the purchase of property plant and equipment so in that
[378]
case it's going to be quite it's it's visible over here 1 lakh 20 as you
[384]
can see or -1 lakh 70 so that's going to be simply we know the
[391]
Calif we know the amount just doing the calculation 50000 so cash flow
[394]
from the investment formula and goes something like this cash flow from the
[398]
sale of land and the sale and the cash shot from the
[402]
PPE that has the property plant equipment so cash flow from investment
[408]
activity is going to be as equal to 30,000 over here there's some problem 87
[418]
okay this should be 70000 so it's
[422]
going to be 30000 less 50000 that will give us negative
[427]
20000 so the cash flow from the investment is an outflow of minus
[431]
20000 now we'll be discussing a cash flow from the investing activity
[435]
as an example which we are going to discuss of Apple now let's have a look
[440]
at the few more sophisticated cash flow statements for the company listed in NYC
[444]
now this is basically the cash flow from the investment of JPMorgan Chase as you
[449]
can see the Apple cash flow from the investment outflow is uh close enough to
[454]
44,000 977 billion dollars I'm sorry this is the temperate for Apple's case
[464]
the Apple cash flow activity of an outflow is 45,000 977 Apple is heavily
[470]
investing in the purchase of the marketable securities that is the Apple
[474]
purchased close enough to 142 428 billion worth of marketable securities
[480]
in 2015 in addition Apple generated the cash
[483]
inflows by selling the marketable this marketable security cash inflows apple
[489]
solid sold sorry apple sold its marketable security generate 90,000 536
[497]
billion in cash inflow in addition apple invested the acquisition of the property
[501]
plant and equipment which is quite visible over here it's negative it was
[508]
11000 now it's 12000 so 12 you can say that it is to the tune of
[512]
12000 $12.73 billion in 2015 then we can take
[518]
another example of Amazon now let's interpret the about cash flow from the
[524]
investing activity in how indicate indicator it is of the situation with
[527]
the company some important points of amazon's cash flow from the investing
[530]
activity has fallen like you know amazon has continuously investing in purchase
[534]
of the property plant and equipment okay and it including software's and victor
[541]
up means amazon's cash flow outflow for like around this was $4590
[545]
billion and 4893 as you can see a billion dollar in
[550]
2015 in 2014 respectively so you should be mindful in that that the expenses
[554]
under this head can be of the great indication on where the company is
[557]
heading to the quality the quality of the kepax is to be determined by reading
[562]
the management discussion is in analysis MDA and which will provide a great
[565]
insight on where the company is planning to be set to are planning to go for the
[569]
next few years so based on this we can make a find a
[574]
conclusion that after discussing all the examples investors earlier used to look
[578]
only on the income statement and balance sheet for the clues about the
[581]
institution the company however over the years investors have now also started
[585]
looking at each one of the statements alongside the consumptions of the cash
[588]
flow statements so this actually helps in getting the whole picture and also
[592]
helps in taking much more calculated investment decisions as we have also
[596]
seen throughout the art the tutorial that we are able to see the cash flow
[600]
from the investing activity is a really a great indicator about the core
[605]
investing activity of the company
