Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether purchase returns should be recorded in a projected cash flow statement. While not typically shown as a separate line item, purchase returns are adjusted against purchases. If past returns are a consistent factor, they can be factored into projections to provide a more accurate financial picture.

No you cannot record purchase return in Projected cash flow statement
We adjust but there is no seperate line showing purchase.
Otherwise it will not be correct picture.
Purchase return is unexpected and unforseen. Not projectable in advance.

Based on past events, one can create an expectation for anything. So if returns were there in the past, so include it in the calculations.

Purchase return is set off against purchase.
