問(wèn)題:In a statement of cash flows which of the following would not be shown as a cash flow within the 'financing' section?
  A. Repurchase of a long-term loan.
  B. Issue of ordinary shares.
  C. Dividends paid.
  D. Repayment of an overdraft.
  答案:The correct answer is: Repayment of an overdraft.
  An overdraft is a borrowing facility repayable on demand. The repayment of an overdraft will increase the amount of cash which is the bottom line of the statement of cash flows.
  Repurchase of a long-term loan means the company is paying the loan back. Dividends paid are a financing outflow.
  Issue of ordinary shares would be a cash inflow under ‘financing'.
