It doesn't generate cash flows. It is added back on the Cash Flow Statement because the Cash Flow Statement begins with Net Income, from which depreciation is deducted.
depreciation is not part of cash flow statement and in indirect method for cash flow it will be added back to cash flow from operating activities.
I assume what you are referring to is the fact that if your are using the indirect approach to complete a cash flow statement, you add back depreciation. This step makes it look like depreciation is generating cash flow for the company. The reason for adding depreciation is that when we are preparing our cash flow statement, we are reconciling net income to account for things that are not reflected or things that do not affect cash flows. If we simplify it, we can say that net income equals ( Sales - Expenses ). Depreciation is an expense that decreases our net income, but it is simply an accounting value to match expenses with revenues produced, and does not affect cash. So, since we deducted depreciation to get to net income we need to add it back when we do our cash flow statement to reconcile net income with our cash flow.
Depreciation is a non cash flow item which reduces the profit figure only so in cash flow statemnet we will add this figure to operating profit then we will get accurate cash flows from operating activities.
