Reading 41: Free Cash Flow Valuation

LOS d: Discuss the appropriate adjustments to net income, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), and cash flow from operations (CFO) to calculate FCFF and FCFE.

 

 

 

The following information is derived from the financial records of Brown Company for the year ended December 31, 2004:

Sales	$3,400,000
Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)	(2,100,000)
Depreciation	(300,000)
Interest Paid	(200,000)
Gain on Sale of Old Equipment	400,000
Income Taxes Paid	(300,000)
Net Income	$900,000

• Brown issued bonds on June 30, 2004 and received proceeds of $4,000,000.
• Old equipment with a book value of $2,000,000 was sold on August 15, 2004 for $2,400,000 cash.
• Brown purchased land for a new factory on September 30, 2004 for $3,000,000, issuing a $2,000,000 note and paying the balance in cash.

Redefining free cash flow to equity (FCFE) as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures, Brown’s free cash flow (FCF) available to equity shareholders for 2004 is:

A) $200,000.

B) $6,200,000.

C) $2,200,000.

Brown’s cash flow from operations (CFO) was $800,000 = ($900,000 Net Income + $300,000 depreciation ? $400,000 gain).
Capital expenditure cash flows were ?$1,000,000 for the factory and $2,400,000 cash received from sale of the old equipment for a net inflow of cash of $1,400,000.
FCF available to shareholders was $2,200,000 = ($800,000 + $1,400,000).
Note that in the case of the factory, the $2,000,000 that was financed using a mortgage note would not be part of the statement of cash flows (SCF), but would be included in the SCF notes.
