Balance sheet equation: Differences:
A(t) = L(t) + E(t) => A = L + E
Decompose:
Cash + CA + NCA = CL + NCL + CC + OE + RE
Note that RE = NI - Div, thus after rearranging,
Cash = NI - CA + CL - NCA + NCL + OE + CC -Div
Accounts we know:
Cash = NI - netAR - Inventory - OCA + CL -netPPE
- ONCA + NCL + OE + CC - Div
