Revenue (accrual based accting) is income from sale of goods & services once the good or service has been provided. It does not mean the monies received.
Gross Profit = Total revenue (inc. all open & closed AR for period been reported but not open historical AR) - COGS. GP = AR1 + AR2 + other) COGS. Where AR1 = current sales where monies have been collected and AR2 = current sales where monies have not been collected.
EBIT = Gross Profit operating expenses depreciation
Net Working Capital(NWC) = Current Assets (Inc all open AR historical and this period related) Current Liabilities. NWC = AR3 + AR2 Current Liabilities, Where AR3 = prior periods sales where moneis not collected and AR2 = sales where monies have not been collected.
Cash Flow of the firm = Operating cash flow + Capital Spending + Change in Net working capital
CF = (AR1 + AR2 COGS operating expenses)This year + Capital Change + ((AR3+AR2 Current liabilities)This year (AR3+AR2 Current Liabilties)Last year.
WHY is it that the cash flow calculation is not a double up of the sales for the current period where monies have not been collected. i.e. AR2.
