I feel the Statement of Cash Flows is a helpful resource in understanding how this financial statement is prepared. I do believe it was good to learn both the direct and indirect methods even though you feel frustrated trying to remember the appropriate increases/decreases between the two methods. At times I felt this book was hard due to the fact that an SCF in my job is very simple compared to how indepth they can be depending on the size and type of business. However, this book does breakdown the process step-by-step and as I stated earlier, it provides a helpful resource in understanding the SCF process.

Statement of Cash flow, comparing to the other courses, it requires a careful analysis. It is an important area to assess business financial activities, and ultimately helps to reach a useful decision on operational activities.

The course was well written and easy to understand. The downloaded version was not readable on my iPad due to the bottom some of the pages being cut off. I had to purchase the hard copy and was not able to get a refund for the downloaded version.
