2Non-cash transactions and their reporting

Non-cash transactions are those transactions that do not involve the transfer of cash and cash equivalents.

 

Depreciation of $16,000 is a non-cash operating expense and it is shown in the cash flow statement by adding back to the net income so that net income reconciles with net cash flows from operating activities.

 

Acquisition of building $119,000 by borrowing $119,000 on a long-term note payable is a non-cash investing and financing activity and it will be reported in a separate part of the statement of cash flows. The reporting of this non-cash investing and financing activity will be as follows:
