I realised I cannot count. I think I can count. It's the anguish. ANGUISH. It's analogous to:

You know how when you finished your titration back in chemistry, but after doing some working backwards* you realised your volume was incorrect but you know your backward calculations are correct, and you just go ahead and doctor your results and get 21.5/22 for your experiment.

The same happend today for FNA. I used the direct method to compute cash flows. BECAUSE IT IS DAMN EASY TO DIRECTLY TRACE THE FLOW OF CASH IN A SMALL BUSINESS WHICH DOES ALMOST NOTHING EXCEPT SELL 2500 FURNITURE WITH A FIXED ASSET OF ONE UNKNOWN EQUIPMENT. the answer was 90k.

but no they wanted the indirect method. and doing things the indirect way always ALWAYS give you weird results. you know how your friends always say"hey, just tell me what's wrong/what's bothering you/what do you want for your birthday present" you should never beat around the bush and be indirect?

It appears that that applies for CASH FLOW STATEMENTS TOO.

*I should have trusted my backward workings. I should have deducted 90k from my 110k and with that excess 20k, work backwards to hunt down that extra weirdo 20k and delete it from my CFO and get a PERFECT MARKS for that *tooot* question. So that I can feel better about screwing the rest of the paper up.
