How are cash flows different than revenues?

Revenue signifies the total earnings from the sale of products or services. When transactions occur on credit or through subscription plans, the funds might not be immediately received, leading to the classification of such amounts as accounts receivable. These figures, although recorded, do not signify actual cash inflows during the reporting period. Cash flows provide a comprehensive record of both outflows and inflows, enabling the categorization of these transactions based on their sources and uses, offering a clearer perspective of a company’s financial activities.
