उत्तर
Yes, the nature or type of an enterprise can change the category into which a particular activity may be classified. This can be better understood with the help of an example of two firms. One engaged in financial services and the other engaged in manufacturing services. For the firm that is engaged in financial services, interests received or paid are classified under operating activities whereas for the firm that is engaged in manufacturing business, interests paid are classified under financing activities and interest received as investing activities. Therefore, the classification of activities depends on the nature and type of enterprise.
