Depending on the industry that the company operates in, this may result in huge differences, e.g. a car dealer that sells through its own system of car loans vs. a retail store that sells everything on cash or  through credit card payments.

The main purpose of a cash statement is to show how well a company manages its cash position.

In our case, the corn farmer is benefiting from the tax incentives the group lobbied for, yet he or she made zero input or effort to contribute to the groups agenda in getting tax incentives. <span />
