On March 31, 2015, Cars, Inc. owes Preston Devices, one of its suppliers, $25,000 for previous purchases. During April 2015, Preston sells Cars devices with a sales price of $10,000 and a cost to Preston of $8,000. During April, Cars pays Preston $12,000 against the amount owed to Preston.

Decrease in Accounts Receivable = 12000-10000 = $2000

Decrease in Inventory = $8000

Decrease in Accounts Receivable and decrease in inventory are added to net income under indirect method statement of cash flows

Therefore the answer is Add change in accounts receivable; add change in inventory.
