Actually the concept is that when cls bal of stock is greater than its openg stock, we are having a profit and should be added with the profit. But as per our presentation principles this profit is taken in the exp side and hence is apearing as a negative fig. Form this what we can understand us our profit has got someadditions and that addition is correct and that is our profit before tax. Again in cfs inventory changes have been deducted as u said. But its considerd as changes in assets abd is abother concept. I dont know whether u get me. Its just a conceptual understanding.

Changes in working capital helps us understand whether cash has been paid or not hence the adjustment.
