Geographical Segmentation refers to a situation where a company targets and creates a strategy based on the geographical location of the business.

In the given instance it is only KFC which has a strategy of selling spicy chicken in cities which are far away from any coast, because people near cost do not eat spicy food, and people in cities living opposite to coastal areas are much interested in spicy food.

Here, the strategy is based on the geographical location of the outlet.

a cash flow statement shows exactly how much money a company has received and how much it has spent, traditionally over a period of one month. it captures the current operating results and changes on the balance sheet, such as increases or decreases in accounts receivable or accounts payable, and does not include noncash accounting items such as depreciation and amortization. the cash flow generally comes from revenue received as a result of business activity, but it may be augmented by funds available as a result of credit. a cash flow statement is used to determine the short-term viability and liquidity of a company, specifically how well it is positioned to pay its bills and vendors.
