What non-cash transactions covers

Non-cash transactions — acquiring an asset under a lease, converting debt to equity, issuing shares for property — change the financial position without any cash moving. They are excluded from the body of the cash flow statement precisely because no cash flowed, but they are disclosed separately so a reader is not misled about the scale of investing and financing activity.

These challenges ask you to identify non-cash items, keep them out of the cash flow statement, and disclose them correctly.

Where marks are usually lost

  • Including a non-cash acquisition as an investing outflow.
  • Omitting the disclosure entirely because nothing appeared in the statement.
  • Recording only the cash portion of a part-cash, part-share transaction without disclosing the rest.
