    Hi all
    In CT2-08 page 25, why is trade and other payables deducted from the operating profit for the purpose of the cash flow statement, rather than added on?
    Thanks

    Hi. Note that the adjustment is for the change in trade payables etc.
    If trade payables have fallen then this is a net cash outflow and so this change is deducted.
