Significance of Funds Flow statement in Financial Management

5. Funds Flow Statement is an analytical tool in the hands of financial manager. The basic purpose of this
statement is to indicate on historical basis the changes in the working capital i.e., where funds came from and where
there are usedduringa given period. The utility of this statement can be measured on the basis of its contributions to
the financial management. It generally serves the following purposes:
(1) Analysis of Financial Position. The basic purpose of preparing the statement is to have a rich into the
financial operationsof the concern. It analyses how the funds were obtained and used in the past. In this sense, it is a
valuable tool for the finance manager for analyzing the past and future plans of the firm and their impact on the
liquidity. He can deduce the reasons for the imbalances in uses of funds in the past and take necessary corrective
actions. In analyzing the financial position of the firm, the Funds Flow Statement answers to such questions as-
1. Why were the net current assets of the firm down, though the net income was up or vice versa?
2. How was it possible to distribute dividends in absence of or in excess of current income for the period?
3. How was the sale proceeds of plant and machinery used?
4. How was the sale proceeds of plant and machinery used?
5. How were the debts retired?
6. What became to the proceeds of share issue or debenture issue?
7. How was the increase in working capital financed?
8. Where did the profits go?
Though it is not an easy job to find the definite answerers to such questions because funds derived from a
particular source re rarely used for a particular purpose. However, certain useful assumptions can often be made and
reasonable conclusions are usually not difficult to arrive at.
(2) Evaluation of the Firm's Financing. One important use of the statement is that it evaluates the firm'
financingcapacity.The analysisof sourcesof fundsrevealshow the firm'sfinanceditsdevelopment projects in the past
i.e., from internal sources or from external sources. It also reveals the rate of growth of the firm.
(3) An Instrumentfor Allocationof Resources. In modernlarge scale business, available funds are always short
for expansionprogrammesandthere isalwaysaproblemof allocation of resources. It is, therefore, a need of evolving
an orderof prioritiesforputtingthroughtheirexpansionprogrammeswhich are phased accordingly, and funds have to
be arranged as different phases of programmes get into their stride. The amount of funds to be available for these
projects shall be estimated by the finance with the help of Funds Flow Statement. This prevents the business from
becoming a helpless victim of unplanned action.
(4) A Tool of Communicationto Outside World.FundsFlow Statementhelpsingathering the financial states of
Business.Itgivesaninsightintothe evolutionof the presentfinancial position and gives answer to the problem 'where
have our resourcesbeenmoving'?Inthe presentworldof credit financing, it provides a useful information to bankers,

proposes,the termsof repaymentansourcesforrepaymentof loan etc. the financial manager gains a confidence born

world.
