Step 1: Identifying the relevant accounting standard.
Accounting Standard (AS) - 03 specifies the guidelines for preparing and presenting a cash flow statement. It outlines the classification of cash flows into operating, investing, and financing activities.
Step 2: Differentiating between accounting standards.
Other standards, such as AS-13 (Investments) and AS-23 (Associates in Consolidated Financial Statements), are unrelated to the cash flow statement. AS-33 deals with earnings per share.
\(\textit{Statement I:}\) In case of non-financial enterprises, payment of interest and dividends are classified as financing activities, whereas receipt of interest and dividends are classified as investing activities.
\(\textit{Statement II:}\) Investing and financing transactions that require the use of cash or cash equivalents, should be excluded from cash flow statement.
