Answer:The cash flow statement gives a breakdown in operating, investing and financing activities, which add up to the change in cash over the period. Free cash flow is the sum of operating cash flow and investing cash flow. This is generally positive for a 'cash cow' (operating cash flows exceeding the investments), and negative for a growth firm (investments exceeding the cash generated by operations).


How many jobs use negative numbers?

Business and finance: Examples are profit (positive) or loss(negative). Net Cash flow (amount of money coming in less amount going out) can be positive or negative. This is not the same as profit/loss. For example, you buy a piece of equipment for your business and finance it. Your payments on the loan affect cash flow, but the interest on the loan and the depreciation of the equipment affect profit/loss. In your personal finance, you can have a net negative cash flow. If you have some savings, and say one year you are laid off for a while and have to draw from savings. Or say you are saving up to buy a car. While you are saving, your net cash flow is positive, then when you buy the car, your cash flow could be negative, for that year. In investing, many investments (mutual funds in particular) will express a Rate of return as a percentage. This number could be either positive (the investment increased in value), or negative (the investment decreased in value).
