问题如下：
Q. In 2018, a company using US GAAP made cash payments of USD6 million for salaries, USD2 million for interest expense, and USD4 million for income taxes. Additional information for the company is provided in the Exhibit 1:Exhibit 1:
Cash Payments
Based only on the information in Exhibit 1, the company’s operating cash flow for 2018 is closest to:
选项：
A.USD6 million.
B.USD10 million.
C.USD14 million.
解释：
A is correct.
Operating cash flows = Cash received from customers – (Cash paid to suppliers + Cash paid to employees + Cash paid for other operating expenses + Cash paid for interest + Cash paid for income taxes)Cash received from customers = Revenue + Decrease in accounts receivable= USD37 + USD3 = USD40 millionCash paid to suppliers = Cost of goods sold + Increase in inventory + Decrease in accounts payable= USD16 + USD4 + USD2 = USD22 millionTherefore, the company’s operating cash flow = USD40 – USD22 – Cash paid for salaries – Cash paid for interest – Cash paid for taxes = USD40 – USD22 – USD6 – USD2 – USD4 = USD6 million.
为什么这道题我用间接法也能算对？ CFO等于NI加上NCC减Gain加Loss加BS科目 NI 等于Rev减payment for sales减Int paid减Tax paid NCC等于0，Gain or Loss等于0，BS科目就是减△资产加△负债 结果算出来和直接法一样的
