Question

Jessica and Tara, owners of Leming & Moran, Inc. operate a lemon meringue pie company. They fired their CPA firm before they issued their financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2016.

In order to complete the financials, Leming & Moran Inc. hired the local CPA firm of Carlson & Gjorgiloska, CPA's to complete the job.

Since partners usually don't do this kind of work, the partners Corey and Stef decided they'd give the assignment to their best CPA at the firm, Michael Thomson.

Because Michael is always too busy trying to work his professors over, he couldn't finish the cash flows.

Please help Michael complete this assignment. Attached are all the financial statements you'll need to prepare the statement of cash flows.

PS: the attached excel spreadsheet is for your convenience. you can enter your information on the spreadsheet if you'd like.

PSS: THINK about the investing activities...
