Cash Flow Statement

A finance concept defining methods and measures used to price assets, evaluate investments, and manage risk. It specifies cash-flow timing, discounting, risk premia, and exposure metrics used in decision-making and reporting. It does not ensure profitability and depends on input quality, model assumptions, and market conditions for reliable use.

An accounting concept defining how transactions are recorded, measured, and summarized into financial statements. It governs recognition, classification, and measurement rules that support consistent reporting of performance, position, and cash generation. It does not ensure faithful reporting without well-designed controls, review procedures, and consistent application of accounting policies.
