Little Bit, Inc. failed to generate cash from operating activities due primarily to the growth in inventories, receivables, and prepaid expenses, combined with the payment of accrued liabilities. This firm may be expanding as evidenced by the increase in capital assets. The expansion is being supported primarily by long-term debt only for the acquisition of plant and equipment, but also to cover the negative cash flows from operations. This is generally not good to match long-term debt maturities with the financing of current assets. It is essential that Little Bit, Inc. generate their cash flow in the future in order to lessen the need for debt, perhaps by controlling the growth of inventories and receivables.
