Calculation of Free Cash Flow | ||
Particulars | Formula | Amount |
Sales | A | 12500 |
Operating Costs | B | 6500 |
Depreciation | C | 1250 |
Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) | D = A-B-C | 4750 |
Interest | E = $3,500*7.5% | 262.5 |
Earnings Before Tax (EBT) | F = D-E | 4487.5 |
Taxes | G = F*25% | 1121.875 |
Net Income | H = F-G | 3365.625 |
Net operating Cash Flows | I = H+C+E | 4878.125 |
Investment in Fixed Assets | J | 2,500 |
Net Working Capital Required | K | 1550 |
Free Cash Flow | L = I - J - K | 828.1250 |
Therefore, Free Cahs Flow is $828 |
