Cash Flows Explained

[@keneokeke200]

This is by far the simplest video on cash flow statement on youtube. Kudos to the creator

[@craigbuckley7603]

Well done this is probably one of the the best videos on cash flows

[@chasingmypinnacle]

Agreed!

Good video. I would add that the Cash Flow Statement is NOT HARD FOR MANAGEMENT TO MANIPULATE. Too many investors jump straight to the CF Statement in the assumption that it can't be messed around with. It is easy to move cash around the place, particularly from CF from Financing Activities to CF from Operations and vice versa. In addition, the CF statement starts getting unreliable for companies that engage in a lot of M&A (e.g. ABInBev, PepsiCo)

[@ThePlainBagel]

Very good point! The cash flow statement is certainly not immune to management's influence, thanks for highlighting!

[@tiagolimp]

@@ThePlainBagel So how can we know if it's being manipulated or not? And is there any other way more reliable to assess how healthy the company is? Thanks in advance =)

[@_Wai_Wai_]

@@tiagolimp yea, so basically, the insiders always have a way to trick and mislead outside investors.

[@jpcorp2274]

That is no entirely true since you have auditors who look into bank statements. Cash flow is harder to make up since cash really are Bank deposits being exchanged and each account is assigned a number. Not to say that is not possible to do it, but it is much harder, it would need banks to be on the side of the firm and play along their game

[@jpcorp2274]

@Tim E. well Enron was always burning through cash, never made FCF.

[@pineapple21723]

I learned a lot within 10 minutes here than listening to my prof for an hour in zoom. Thanks A Lot Plain Bagel CEO!

[@kelvinwang1002]

I literally just finished the CF chapter in CFA1 just a few weeks ago. Bless your soul, Richard

[@scottwong426]

One of my favorite KZbin channel. Very knowledgeable , very artuculate. This is one person that I truly undersrand

[@RamTalks]

Plain and clear, Richard. Thank you :P

[@66Bojack]

This channel deserves 1M+ subscribers. Top quality content presented in a very simple way. Keep it up!

[@samssalman]

suggestion: very useful content, thank you very much. clear and simple. if i may add a recommendation, as a ux researcher, i would recommend doing the following simple change; If you want to discuss 3 elements, cash flow components for example. i would recommend displaying the 3 even when you are discussing one of them. display the 3 each time and highlight the one you will foucs on. this makes for an easier understanding and less cognitive workload. makes is easier for people to remember the 3 (recognition is better than recall). sorry if this is not very clear (sorry, writing this laying down with a significant leg pain) . feel free to reach if you would like more information.

[@teresaconners1143]

This video was very well done. It really simplifies the information about the cash flows and makes it much easier to understand. Thank you for taking the time to do this!

[@davidschroeder3580]

I have ALWAYS struggled understanding this with other presentations and through my readings of this and it FINALLY just clicked ! Great video, thanks so much!

[@martinezcolonh]

Finally an easy to understand video of cash flow, much better explanation than other business channels.

I have been watching your videos for a while now. Thanks for spending your time to make these very educative videos. What a great job analyzing the cash flows! I have already subscribed to your channel. Wish you success.

[@andreimircea2254]

Best Video Ever ! Now because of It I know the “secret formula” of a good stock/dividend/bond/etc. market !! I cannot thank you enough Plain Bagel. Keep up with your amazing hard work.

[@LessonUpwithUmair]

Income Statement can be manipulated using accounting principles for maybe tax purposes or others. It should always be read with cash flow statement when evaluating it. Would have loved to see you bifurcating free cash flows for firm and equity as well but overall very informative and great video 👍🏻

[@amarug]

At 0:25 did you mean to say "because unrealized capital losses"? otherwise i dont understand the example

[@ahsanmohammed1]

Thank you. Info Good info. Simple. Easy to understand. Excellent graphics. CFO When you mentioned suddenly CFO, I was confused. Had to pause video and Google it. Would’ve been nice if a pop up showed, CFO, Cash from Operating Expenses. Sound Music unnecessary. Use best in market audio system. Again. Thank you. Appreciate the info and insights.

[@ednaflores1769]

How is all this so easy for some people? I'm having the hardest time in my accounting class. Thank you for your clear explanation of cash flows.

[@SamvitAgarwal]

At 6:40 you say that the companies have earnings of $10M, but each of the cash flow statements presented later show a net of $1M. Was this a mistake, or is there something else they could make money from?

[@ThePlainBagel]

The two won't equal each other because they are measuring different things. Earnings include things like depreciation that aren't included in ANY of the cash flow numbers. Hope that clears things up!

[@AndyBankside]

Best explanation I've seen. Thank you!

Cash from financing activities is connected to FCF. if it is negative, will there really be a FCF?

[@Rey-sb6li]

Hi! I just noticed a problem with your example in the end video. The net income (net change in cash) of each company should be $ 1 million, instead of $ 10 million. Right? By the way, your videos are amazing as always (animation is improving too!) :)

[@yashpatil953]

Thanks for such a clear and simple Explanation Keep making :)

[@johnthicks8568]

I personally like to look at cash flow but going back and removing depreciation. That way your getting the operating earnings and still recognizing the need to spend capx.

[@hussjami]

a rare, nice and brief explanation of cash flows, thank you. i would like to have such a video on "published accounts and its importance in a business", likewise i would love if plain bagel posts some good videos on "strategic management" comprising these topics specially, "strategic analysis, choice and implementation". thanks again

good explanation, great video. thank you

[@tawonamakumbe1786]

thanks man really appreciate the help. Probably still going fail my exam but thanks

[@matts_1]

I've been debating with myself whether to use FCFE or FCF, this cleared it up. Thanks a lot!

[@ThePlainBagel]

FCFE if you’re valuing the stock, FCF if you’re valuing the enterprise! As a shareholder you only care about the FCF after it’s paid off debts (so FCFE) because you don’t get the debt money

[@mpwickfly]

Love the video. There are a couple of things I do not understand. 1) At 4:40 you are talking about +CFF and -CFF but the graphics show +VE and -VE. What does VE stand for? 2) at 5:18 we have OCF - Capex. Operating Cash Flow was not mentioned previously in the video. CFO, Cash Flow from Operations was mentioned. Are they the same? And at one point “Capex, or CFI which is the money a company spends on long-term assets like...”. So is Capex the same as CFI? Or is Capex only a part of what is included in CFI? Thank you!

[@ThePlainBagel]

+ve/-ve are just shorthand for positive and negative! Yes OCF and CFO are the same (I think OCF is used instead more commonly because CFO also stands for Chief Financial Officer). Capex and CFI are similar, but Capex is just a cost; it's how much the company has invested in assets. CFI includes both costs and gains from investing in assets (like Capex) but also gains from selling assets. Hope that clears things up!

[@shilpakelkar4269]
