This amount goes back into the CF and completes that statement 4) New ending debt and cash balances feed into the balance sheet and new average balances created 5) New interest expense and income calculated off new balances and fed back into the income statement 6) A new Net Income is generated, which now feeds into the cash flow statement again, creating a circular reference DEBT SCHEDULE Cash Available / Required 2 Before Debt Debt Payments / Sweeps 3
