Reserve Bank of Australia Annual Report – 1994 Financial Statements Cash Flow Statement

Note 16 Cash Flow Statement

The following cash flow statement appears as a matter of record to meet the requirements of AAS 28; in the Bank's view it does not shed any additional light on the Bank's financial results.

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, cash includes the notes and coin held at the Reserve Bank and overnight settlements systems account balances with other banks. Minor revisions to 1992/93 data reflect the netting of interest on overnight settlements systems accounts (see Note 2).
