A statement usually prepared when the final account and balance sheets of a company are produced. This statement would normally show how funds are received i. e. from profits, sale of assets, increased capital, etc. It will also show how these funds have been used, i. e. payment of dividends, purchase of fixed assets, repayment of loans, etc. The date on this statement is usually the same as that on the final accounts and balance sheet.
