Prepare a direct-method operating section of the statement of cash flows for 1997 using the information available in the balance sheet and income statement (Exhibits 3 and 4), as well as the supplementary cash flow information (Exhibit 5). The below-attached template on the following page may be useful in answering this question. Be sure to explain your answers in summary form and list the additions/subtractions and where from the income statement and balance sheet these numbers are being pulled from for your final calculation (explain your logic).

TEMPLATE BELOW:

Income Statement			Adjustments			Cash Flow (Direct-method)
Net sales	147,758	+/–			=	Cash from Customers
Cost of sales	–118,945	+/–			=	Cash Paid for Inventory
Marketing and sales	–38,964	+/–			=	Cash paid for marketing
Product development	–12,485	+/–			=	Cash paid for product dev.
General and administrative	–1,831	+/–			=	Cash flow paid for G&A
Interest income	1,898	+/–			=	Interest received
Interest expense	–279	+/–			=	Interest Paid
Depr. and amort.	–3,388	+/–			=
Amort. of compensation	–1,354	+/–			=
Net Loss	–27,590					CFO

(Note that the template disaggregates total “General and administrative expenses” reported in the Statement of Operations into three categories: (i) General and administrative, (ii) Depreciation and amortization, and (iii) Amortization of compensation)
