Why is depreciation an adjustment to net income in the operating activities section of the standard statement of cash flows?
When you start from net income to calculate the operativ cashflow you have to (1) add (substract) all operativ expenses (income) that appear in the income statement but did not result in cash in- or outflow, and (2) add (substract) all operativ cash inflow (outflow) that were not income (expense) and thus not recorded in the income statement. The net income plus all these adjustments equals the operativ cashflow. Depreciation were recorded in the income statement as an expense but it did not result in an cash outflow. You have to add it therefore to the net income. The method described above is the indirect method to calculate the operativ cash flow.
