Requirement #3

Comment on the results of your analysis.

CASH

Cash decreases this year. We think that it has got to do with the statement of cash flow wherein the entity generates more cash outflow than

inflow.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The entity maybe didn’t collect cash from the services renders on credit, or perhaps, sale on

accounts were increased.

INVENTORY

The entity maybe had produced more inventories, or there were still inventories not

sold.

PREPAID EXPENSES

The entity, perhaps, made an additional advanced payment either on rent or

insurance.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

The entity improved the facilities, and added new equipments for a better system.

CURRENT LIABILITIES

The entity purchased more on account.

NOTE PAYABLE

The entity borrowed again from the bank.

SALES

The entity sold the inventories on account, since there were many inventories produced.
