No, cash flows cannot be comparable
Explanation:
- Cash flows is the accounting term which is defined as the net amount of cash which the entity receives as well as disburses during a time period. And the time period which the cash flow is kept tracked is like year, month or quarter.
- The sources of cash flows are operations, financing and investing activities of the business.

And in order to move the cash flow forward in time, one need to compound it using Time value of money. And move the cash flow back in time, one need to use the Discount.
