guapka [62]

Answer:

$43 million

Explanation:

The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.

The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.  

The sale of assets, interest received, purchase of investments are examples of investing activities while the issuance of stocks, debt principal deduction (loan settlement), issuance of debt securities etc are examples of financing activities.

An increase in assets other than cash is an outflow while an increase in liabilities is an inflow. Depreciation and other non-cash expenses deducted in the income statements are added back while the non-cash income such gain on asset are deducted from net income.

Peridot's Net cash outflows from investing activities (in millions)

= -$38 + $96 + $71 - $86

= $43

The gain from the disposal of land will be deducted from the net income under the cash flows from operating activities while the requisition of own shares is a financing activity.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue = $3,960 Favorable

Explanation:

Provided budget is static budget, firstly for calculating flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue.

For this flexible budget is made of same level of quantity as of actual level.

therefore Flexible budget sales = 990 units @ $70 per unit price will be same as of static budget.

Therefore Variance = Standard Flexible Budgeted Sales - Actual Sales

Standard Flexible Budgeted Sales = 990 \times $70 = $69,300

Actual Sales Revenue = 990 \times $74 = $73,260

Since actual revenue is more than budgeted sales this is favorable.

Flexible Budget Variance for Sales Revenue = $69,300 - $73,260 = $3,960

Since actual revenue is more than budgeted revenue therefore this is a favorable variance.

Flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue = $3,960 Favorable
