Costs 600
Depreciation 240
EBIT $ 160
Interest expenses 60
EBT $ 100
Taxes (40%) 40
Net income $ 60
BALANCE SHEET
Cash $ 20
Accounts payable $ 30 Short-term investments 30 Accruals 50 Accounts receivable 20 Notes payable 10 Inventory 60 Current liabilities 90 Current assets 130 Long-term debt 70 Gross fixed assets 140 Common stock 30 Accumulated deprec. 40 Retained earnings 40 Net fixed assets 100 Total common equity 70 Total assets $230 Total liab. & equity $230
If the Total Operating Capital FOR THE LAST YEAR WAS $120, what is the current year's Free Cash Flow?
a. |
$90 |
|
b. |
$105 |
|
c. |
$70 |
|
d. |
$96 |
- Total Operating Capital for Current Year = Current Assets + Net fixed Assets - Accounts payable - Accruals
= $130 + 100 - $30 - 50
Total Operating Capital for Current Year = $150
Total Operating Capital for Last Year = $120
Change in Operating Capital = Total Operating Capital for Current Year - Total Operating Capital for Last Year
Change in Operating Capital = $150 - $120 = $30
- Current Years' Free cash flow(FCF) = EBIT - taxes - Change in Operating Capital
FCF = $160 - $40 - $30
FCF = $90
So, the current year's Free Cash Flow is $90
