Chart connections

  • Beginning cash plus operating, investing and financing cash flows plus the exchange-rate effect equals ending cash. Negative amounts reduce cash.
  • Financing contributions meet at a reconciliation junction before connecting to the net cash total.
  • Investing contributions meet at a reconciliation junction before connecting to the net cash total.
  • Operating reconciliation adjustments are not all independent cash receipts.
  • Net income enters operating cash directly in the reconciliation. The adjustment junction contributes the remaining $48.00M after reconciling the other positive and negative adjustments. These connections depict an accounting reconciliation, not traced cash receipts.
  • Each activity has one net cash bar connected to the shared cash pool. Positive activity totals enter the pool; negative activity totals leave the pool to fund that activity's net payments. The central pool does not assign a particular funding source to a particular payment.
  • The intermediate calculation bars include both sides of the displayed activity breakdowns; they are not additional cash flows.
  • Cash-flow net income is $938.00 M, derived by subtracting the earlier cumulative period; the income statement reports $933.00 M for the same period. The difference is $5.00 M. Neither amount has been adjusted.
  • Operating cash flow minus cash purchases of property, plant and equipment equals free cash flow: 986,000,000 US dollars minus 223,000,000 US dollars equals 763,000,000 US dollars.
  • Cash-flow net income is $938.00 M, derived by subtracting the earlier cumulative period; the income statement reports $933.00 M for the same period. The difference is $5.00 M. Neither amount has been adjusted.
