For accounting purposes, cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows.  This statement shows the amount of cash generated and used by a company in a given period, calculated by adding non-cash charges (such as depreciation) to net income after taxes. Cash flow can be attributed to a specific project, or to a business as a whole. Cash flow can be used as an indication of a company's financial strength.\n\nThe cash flow statement is presented either indirectly or directly.  Only governmental and not-for-profit entities financial statements require the indirect and the direct method.  All others only require the direct method.  Therefore, most schools do not teach the indirect method.\n\nThe statement is broken up into three sections:  Cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing and cash flows from financing.

I think the best source for an overview of this information is Adrian Slywotzsky's best selling book - the Profit Zone.  This was required reading in my MBA program.  The Profit Zone has write ups on 22 different profit models - each of which is somewhat unique for depending on its business model. For example "Specialization Profit" takes different approaches that "Relative Market Share Profit."  This is a great book, easy to read, with a lot of visual content that will help you understand the concepts.

It depends on what the intention is behind the sentence. If you intend to be involved in a broader range of activities then the choice is extensively. If, on the other hand, you mean to be involved at a deeper level with the existing activities then the choice is intensively. Intensively does not address the variety of activity but it does state that more attention will be applied to whatever activities exist. So the two words have different meanings.

For the indirect method:\nOPERATING ACTIVITIES\n1. Start with net income. Then add depreciation expense, add (subtract) losses (gains) on the disposition of fixed assets, investment losses (gains), amortization of intangibles, and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. These charges (credits) must be added (subtracted) because they are non-cash in nature.\n\n2. Then, look at the balance sheet and add (subtract)decreases (increases) in operating assets (e.g. accounts receivable, inventory, prepayments) for the period. For example, if prepaid insurance increases by $1,000, add $1,000 to the operating activities section. This must be done because the balance of the account increased (i.e. cash outflow) but this has not yet been reflected in net income. Next, add (subtract) increases (decreases) in operating liabilities (e.g. accounts payable, accrued expenses, taxes accrued, salaries payable).\n\nNote: The investing activites and financing activites section are the same under both the direct and indirect methods. The indirect method only applies to the operating activites section.\n\nINVESTING ACTIVITES\n\n1. Analyze the activity in the fixed asset and investment accounts. Determine the amount of cash paid for capital expenditures and purchases of investments classified as held-to-maturity or available for sale (Note that purchases and sales of trading securities are considered operating activities. The change in balance of trading securities assets should be included in the operating activites section.).\n\n2. Determine the amount of cash received for sales of fixed assets or investments. Report this amount as a cash inflow.\n\n3. For steps 2 and 3, merely taking the change in balance of the fixed asset and investment accounts will not work. You must analyze the activity in the accounts.\n\n4. Also include in this section cash paid to acquire companies. The amount of cash outflow reported should be net of cash received in the acquisition. Conversely, include cash received from the sale of subsidiaries in this section. Note that when there is an acquistion or divestiture, the change in the operating assets and liabilties on the balance sheet will not match the change reported in the operating activites section of the statement of cash flows because the amounts shown in the operating activites section do not include the change in the asset or liability due to the acquisition or divestiture.\n\nFINANCING ACTIVITES\n\n1. Determine the change in short-term debt. If short-term debt increased during the period, report a cash inflow. If it decreased, report a cash outflow. This amount may be reported as a net number if the maturities of the short-term debt do not exceed 90 days. Otherwise, the gross amounts must be reported.\n\n2. Determine the amount of long-term debt issued. Show this amount as a cash inflow. Determine the amount long-term debt repaid/retired. Show this amount as a cash outflow. \n\n3. Do not show interest paid in this section. All interest paid is an operating activity.\n\n4. Determine the amount of dividends paid during the period. Show this amount as a cash outflow. Note that dividends received are not a financing cash flow and should be reported as operating activities.\n\n5. Determine the amount of cash received for the issuance of stock. Report this amount as a cash inflow. Report repurchases of common stock separately in this section as a cash outflow.\n\n6. If there were any debt issue costs incurred (underwriting fees, bond discount), they should be reported as a cash outflow in this section.\n\n7. If there were excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements credited to paid-in capital, these amounts would also be reported as financing cash inflow.\n\nGOOD LUCK!!!! Post additional questions if you need help.

Work on logic games; that can help with general reasoning. \n\nWhat are you trying to analyze? Work situations? Shipping? Personnel? There's a lot of books and resources, some probably available at your library, that give strategy for various aspects of business. Sorry I can't be more precise, but your question is very broad.

This is a guess; direct government would be the parts directly accountable to elected politicians. Indirect would be those parts not directly accountable eg the judiciary where judges may amend laws but are not accountable to an electorate; an example would be the supreme court in the USA

Developmental approach -- Skills and knowledge are categorized by level of difficulty, and matched to physical and mental developmental readiness of the student. The teacher identifies which skills are missing, and teaches them based on student developmental readiness. The teacher controls the student's activities, environment, time, etc. to enable the student to learn the targeted skills. A very successful approach, especially when dealing with students with special needs.\n\nProgressive approach -- The teacher defines the environment and available activities, but the student determines if and what will be explored. A variety of skills and knowledge are made available for exploration. The teacher acts as a facilitator, suggesting, explaining, etc., but the student is entirely in control of his/her learning. A good approach for gifted education, but difficult to apply when dealing with students of any ability level who have low motivation.

Strategy is the large scale goal you wish to accomplish (e.g. Become a Millionaire).  Tactics are the individual steps you are going to take to achieve that goal (e.g. Got to College, Study Chemistry, Invent something cool, marry money, etc..).\n\nThankx.

An option strategy is usually implemented by combining one or more option positions and zero or more underlying positions. The option positions used can be long and/or short positions in calls and/or puts at various strikes.\n\nGenerally, options trading strategies can classified to be bullish, bearish or neutral. In the case of neutral strategies, they can be further classified into those that are bullish on volatility and those that are bearish on volatility.\n\nAnd That's My Best Option Answer!

They are similar.  The only noticeable difference is how much leg-work you will be doing in drafting the plan.  It is much harder and time consuming to do a start up plan than it is an existing business, partly because the existing business is well...existing!

There are more processes. Contents are more detailed. Some processes names have changes( eg Quality Assurance is nor "Perform Quality Assurance"). Some terms have changed ( eg Earned Value, Planned Value had other names in the old version). A lot of the description is much more detailed.\nThe new PMBOK also has a chapter describing in detail what all  the changes are, so you can see that there if you are interested.\n\nWhat it may mean to you practically -- the new version PMBOK(PM Book of Knowledge) has nearly DOUBLE the pages (400 +) than the older version !!!
