Statement of Cash Flows Every investor, creditor, potential partners or third party is interested in how well a business is doing before any money and/ or time is spent on that firm. In order for them to fully understand the financial well-being of a company, they must read a statement of cash flows. A statement of cash flow, is also known as “cash flow statement,” is defined as “a basic financial statement that provides information about cash receipts, cash payments, and the net change in cash resulting from the operating, investing, and financing activities of a company during the period” (Kieso, Weygandt, & Warfield, 2013). Purpose of the Cash Flow Statement The statement of cash flow was required by the FASB, because the other financial statements did not pertain all the information necessary to provide great judgement on any company. Statements such as the balance sheet and the income statement could only provide financial data to a certain point (Kieso, Weygandt, & Warfield, 2013). The whole purpose of the…

Second, late this summer, I visited some of my old friends and former professors at Dordt College, where I became a Christian more than twenty years ago. My experience during this trip seemed unforgettable. I met and caught up with close friends and professors. When I was a…

for two minutes. However, this mere two minutes felt like an eternity for myself and the audience members. The room seemed to get a little darker and the air felt like it was in a battle with itself not knowing which emotion it wanted to spread throughout the building. Finally, it calmed and she began to speak. She touched on a topic everyone has experienced in their life: love. It is amazing how a four letter word can have such a wide array of meanings depending on the person discussing it. The…
death provides eternal peace to its victims. Woolf appears to agree with the latter. By explaining the entire process of dying, the author delivers on a hidden point that stands for a moral of the story: both life and death are perfectly natural. Whether one experiences it unexpectedly or expires due to old age, death remains a necessary tool for the cycle of life. Thus, Woolf implies that one should enjoy every aspect of life, including the mundane. Because death cannot be avoided, one must…

As I became older, my thirst for knowledge about the medical field, particularly pharmacy, grew. I dreamed of becoming a…

Two years ago, I was writing a Statement of Purpose for my application to the Master of Public Administration (MPA) program with a concentration in Healthcare Administration, revealing my failures, and most significantly, that I felt I lost my passion and didn’t know where to start. I also conceded that I was relatively unaware of the field of public administration (PA). Little did I know, examining PA theories would enable me to connect the final dots in the big picture of my life, where I came…
about Jesus that I had heard a thousand times, but for the first time in my life it finally started to resonate in my head, and I could feel the transformation in my mind begin.
