As a complement to the balance sheet and the income statement, the statement of cash flows is an informative statement for analysts for all the following reasons except:

Cash requirements to service debt, for example, may outstrip the ability of operations to generate cash. b. The existence of negative cash flows from operations can be eliminated by using this financial statement. c.
