Funds from Operation

The Net Profit disclosed by the P&L A/C may not generate an equal amount of funds to the business . A business making a substantial profit may not have adequate funds at the end of the accounting period. On the contrary, a business may have enough funds at its disposal though it has incurred a substantial loss.

Reason -> P&L A/C records expenses that should have been paid and records income that should have been received . It takes into account all prepayments and accruals. Moreover, the charging of depreciation or amortization of intangible or fictitious items do not require any use of funds in the current period.
In short, the P&L does not make any distinction between any funds flow and non-funds flow items.

Net Profit as per P&L A/C Add: Expenses not resulting in application of funds Depreciation Discount written off Goodwill written off Preliminary Expenses written off Transfers to Reserves Add: Expenses being Non-business expenses Loss on sale of fixed assets Loss on redemption of debentures Income being Non business incomes Dividend received Interest received Profit on sale of fixed assets Profit on redemption of debentures
