标题: NOPLAT vs. EBIT(1-T) [打印本页] 作者: PieMan 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58 标题: NOPLAT vs. EBIT(1-T)
Is the only difference NOPLAT accounts for changes in deferred taxes?
In the corp. finance section: FCF = NOPLAT + NCC - change in working capital - capex
In equity section we have: FCFF = EBIT(1-t) + NCC - FCinv - WCinv
...kinda seems like these are the exact same?作者: Kapie 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58
I thought NOPLAT was EBIT(1-t). I have also seen NOPAT used as EBIT(1-t). I think all three are the same thing. But I do not think that any make adjustments due to defered taxes since they represent cash flows before taxes作者: wxs1986 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58
Wow, did not catch that the first time around. That's why I joined this board. Now I know and will remember if they hit me with it on the exam.
Thanks作者: defour44 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58

It's helped me by thinking that they are all the same...the only thing is check out pg. 271 vol 3. where it gives the def of NOPLAT; Says that NOPLAT = Unlevered net income + change in deferred taxes.
Unlevered net income by itself is EBIT(1-T)
FCF looks and smells just like FCFF, only NOPLAT is used instead of EBIT(1-T) which includes an adjustment for deferred taxes...I really hope they don't get that tricky.作者: chandsingh 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58
NOPLAT adjustes for the changes in deferred taxes. EBIT (1-t) does not, IMHO.作者: Uranus08 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58
Just to be clear, if deferred taxes increase during the year, does this mean that NOPLAT > NOPAT? That is, NOPLAT = EBIT(1-t) + increase in deferred tax (- decrease in deferred tax)?

Here's an example from the Corp Fin part of QBank:
Gambit Enterprises is being evaluated as an acquisition target. For the upcoming year an analyst has estimated the following values: net income = $300m, net interest after tax = $100m, change in deferred taxes = +$25m, depreciation = $200m, change in net working capital = +$30m, CAPEX = $250m. Calculate the firm’s estimated free cash flow.
A) $295m.
B) $405m.
C) $345m.
Your answer: C was correct!
Net income + net interest after tax = 300m + 100m = $400m = unlevered net income.
Unlevered net income + change in deferred taxes = 400m + 25m = $425m = NOPLAT.
NOPLAT + depreciation – change in net working capital – CAPEX = 425m + 200m – 30m – 250m = $345m = FCF.作者: hassan 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58
That's really helpful - thank you. So in this example: NOPAT = EBIT(1-t) = $400m.
And adding the increase in deferred taxes: NOPLAT = 400 + 25 = $425m.
That's great, thanks again integraldx.作者: tikfed 时间: 2011-7-13 13:58
in the equity book,
Real noplat= EBIT real - real taxes
