The Metropolitan Hotel had a negative cash flow since the cash at the end of Year 2 is less than the cash at the end of year 1. The negative cash flow resulted in a reduction of the liquidity and hence the financial flexibility of the business. A positive and stable cash flow is needed for regular payment of the salaries of employees, payments of dividends to shareholders, timely payment of taxes and insurance premiums, and payment of loan interest and principal without any disruption. Thus, a negative cash flow may result in financial failure of the business. Moreover, failure of the business to realize its liquidity and financial flexibility status may cause significant problems such as bankruptcy. Thus, the statement of cash flow is important in ensuring that the business becomes aware of its liquidity status hence make accurate decisions concerning its ability to meet its short-term obligations.
