Question: We have just accepted a new audit client, Pathobio Inc. (PI), and we will be performing the audit for the upcoming September 30, 2021 year

We have just accepted a new audit client, Pathobio Inc. (PI), and we will be performing the audit for the upcoming September 30, 2021 year end. Incorporated in 2015, PI is a biotechnology company focused on developing effective anticancer drugs through clinical trials. Despite the personal wealth of the company's owner, Lucas Wagner, PI approached a bank for financing in October 2020 because the company is expected to operate at a loss in fiscal 2021 and Lucas does not want to invest additional funds in the company. The bank has requested audited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021 to receive financing in fiscal 2022. The bank requires that the financial statements be prepared in accordance with ASPE. However, when looking at last year's financial statements, we noticed that there was no cash flow statement. Please prepare one.

Here are the Balance Sheet and Income Statement.
