Final answer:

The answer to the question about which detail cannot be found in a company's statement of cash flows is the amount of revenue generated during the period, which is found on the income statement, not in the statement of cash flows.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asking which of the following could not be answered from the statement of cash flows is 'How much revenue was generated during the period?' The statement of cash flows provides information about a company's cash inflows and outflows from its operating, investing, and financing activities. It does not provide details on revenue as revenue is reported on the income statement. The statement of cash flows can help answer questions about the company's net income (by reconciling it with cash from operating activities) and cash transactions related to debt but does not provide the total debt amount which is found on the balance sheet.
