Use of cash flow statement as an analytical tool is expanded in two ways:

Cash-flow statement analysis is integrated in the debt chapter, equity chapter, and plant assets chapter. This helps increase students' familiarity with the statement of cash flows and helps them differentiate between operating, investing, and financing activities.
