    Question

    Under AS-3, how should a SEBI-registered Non-Banking

    Financial Company (NBFC) classify Interest Received and Interest Paid in its Cash Flow Statement?
    A Interest Received as Investing; Interest Paid as Financing. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Both as Operating Activities. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Both as Financing Activities. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Interest Received as Operating; Interest Paid as Financing. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Interest Received as Investing; Interest Paid as Operating. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    For financial enterprises (like banks or NBFCs), interest and dividends received/paid are considered Operating Activities because they relate to the primary revenue-producing activity (lending and borrowing).   For non-financial firms, interest paid is Financing and interest received is Investing.
