Identify the method of computing net cash provided by operating activities each company used. The indirect approach is used by PepsiCo, Inc. and Coca-Cola Company to calculate net cash flow, which compares accrual to actual cash on hand from operational operations. The indirect technique adjusts net income from the influx and outflow of noncash transactions by comparing the balance sheets from the previous and current years, the income statements for the current year, and the data on current transactions from the general ledger. 2. Calculate the amounts of cash provided by operating activities reported by each company in 2020. The net income, costs, assets, and liabilities are used to determine the cash amount. According to 2020 reports, these operating operations generated the following net cash: PepsiCo, Inc : $10,613 (million) Coca-Cola Company : $9,844 (million) 3. Explain the two companies’ trends in net cash provided by operating activities over the period 2018 to 2020. The net cash supplied by operational activities for both businesses increased gradually overall between 2018 and 2020. The Coca-Cola Company saw an overall increase of 2,217 million during the time, with an increase of $2,844 million from 2018 to 2019 and a reduction of $627 million from 2019 to 2020. On the other hand, PepsiCo Inc. observed rises over the entire time, beginning with a $234 (million) increase from 2018 to 2019 and continuing this pattern with a $964 (million) increase from 2019 to 2020. Even though the Coca-Cola Company saw a decline for one year, they both exhibit steady growth over the course of the two years. Investing Activities 1. Identify the most significant item in the investing activities section reported by each company in 2020. PepsiCo, Inc.—net of cash acquired—saw a $6,372 (million) cash outflow from investments in noncontrolled affiliates and acquisitions. The Coca-Cola Company spent $13,583 (million) in cash on investment purchases. Financing Activities 1. Identify the most significant item in the financing activities section reported by each company in 2020. The most important thing that each company reported in 2020's financing operations section was:
PepsiCo, Inc.: profits from the sale of long-term debt brought in $13,809 (million) in cash. Coca- Cola Company: $28,796 (million) in cash was spent on debt repayment. Depreciation and Amortization 1. Identify what activity would depreciation and amortization be reported on in each company’s statement of cash flow using the indirect method. If both companies had used the indirect approach, depreciation and amortization would have been reported in the operations activity column of their statement of cash flows. 2. Explain why each company reported on depreciation and amortization where they did in their statement of cash flows. Since depreciable asset purchases need cash and are utilized in operations, depreciation and amortization would be non-cash asset charges that have an impact on net income. Therefore, in order to determine the net cash flow generated by these companies' operating operations on the statement of cash flows, they must be brought back into the net income. 3. Identify the amount of depreciation and amortization for each company. The amount of depreciation and amortization: PepsiCo, Inc: $2,548 (million) Coca-Cola Company: $1,536 (million) Statement of Cash Flows and Ratios 1. Compute the current cash debt coverage for each company. PepsiCo, Inc. - 2020 - Current Cash Debt Coverage = .48 = (10,613/21,916.5) (Average Current Liabilities = 21,916.5 = 20,461+23,372/2) Coca-Cola Company – 2020 – Current Cash Debt Coverage = .47 = (9,844/20,787) (Average Current Liabilities = 20,787 = 26,973+14,601/2) 2. Compute the cash debt coverage for each company. PepsiCo, Inc. - 2020 - Cash Debt Coverage = .13 = (10,613/79,366) Coca-Cola Company – 2020 – Cash Debt Coverage = .14 = (9,844/66,012) (Total Liabilities = 66,012 = 87,296 – 21,284) 3. Explain what conclusions can be drawn from the current cash debt coverage ratio and the cash debt coverage ratio. Address the following questions in your response: A. What conclusions can be drawn from the current cash debt coverage ratio? A company's capacity to manage its cash flow is shown by its current cash debt coverage ratio. For any corporation, tracking cash from operations as a percentage of current liabilities is a helpful liquidity measure.
B. What conclusions can be drawn from the cash debt coverage ratio? A type of coverage ratio called cash debt coverage ratio is used to calculate how long a business would need to pay off its debt if all of its cash flow was allocated to that goal.
