Q – 3 Explain what is the difference between net income and free cash flow?
Ans- Under the accrual method of accounting, net income is calculated as follows: revenues earned minus the expenses incurred in order to earn those revenues. If a company earns revenues in December but allows those customers to pay in 30 days, the cash from the December revenues will likely be received in January. In this situation the December revenues will increase the December net income, but will not increase the company’s December net cash flow.
Under accrual accounting, expenses are matched to the accounting period when the related revenues occur or when the costs have expired. For example, a retailer may have purchased and paid for merchandise in October. However, the merchandise remained in inventory until it was sold in December. The company’s net cash flow decreases in October when the company pays for the merchandise.
However, net income decreases in December when the cost of the goods sold is matched with the December sales.

Ans- VAT (Value Added Tax): It is value added Tax. means total value which is added in goods price as a profit , on that value, the tax is paid is called VAT.
we can see it with example:
goods Purchase= 20000
Input Tax @ 4 % = 20000*4%= 800
now we sold this goods
Sale = 35000
Out put tax @ 4 % = 35000*4% = 1400
When we purchased Goods the saler collect a tax value from us as a sales tax. then we sold goods. we charge a tax amount in invoice. finally wen we pay tax to govt.
then total value of tax payble will be : Out put tax – Input Tax= 1400-800 = 600.
So Nett Tax payable Amount Is Rs. 600. this amount is a part of total value added in sales price not that sales price.
we can see it : Total Value add: Sales – Purchase = 35000-20000= 15000.
and tax amount on value added:15000*4 % = 600.
it has been proved that VAt Is an value added Tax.

to Profit and Loss of the year, it may be spread over a number of years with a proportionate amount being charged each year to P&L Account.
The portion that is still not charged to Profit and Loss is shown in the balance sheet on the asset side after Capital Work in Progress and is called Deferred Expenditure.
