Summary Introduction

To calculate: The cash flow from assets

Answer to Problem 1CC

The cash flow from assets for 2014 is $4,910.

Explanation of Solution

Formulae:

The formula to calculate the ending net working capital:

$\text{Ending net working capital}=\text{Ending current assets}-\text{Ending current liabilities}$

The formula to calculate the beginning net working capital:

$\text{Beginning net working capital}=\text{Beginning current assets}-\text{Beginning current liabilities}$

The formula to calculate the change in net working capital:

$\text{Change in net working capital}=\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Ending net working capital}-\\ \text{Beginning net working capital}\end{array}\right)$

The formula to calculate the cash flow from assets:

$\text{Cash flow from assets}=\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Operating}\\ \text{cash flow}\end{array}\right)-\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Change in net}\\ \text{working capital}\end{array}\right)-\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Net capital}\\ \text{spending}\end{array}\right)$

Compute the net capital spending:

Net capital spending
Particulars	Amount
Ending net fixed assets	$264,021
Less: Beginning net fixed assets	$211,680
	$52,341
Add: Depreciation	$54,230
Net capital spending	$106,571

Hence, the net capital spending is $106,571.

Compute the ending net working capital:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Ending net working capital}=\text{Ending current assets}-\text{Ending current liabilitie}s\\ =\$98,783-\$69,661\\ =\$29,122\end{array}$

Hence, the ending net working capital is $29,122.

Compute the beginning net working capital:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Beginning net working capital}=\text{Beginning current assets}\\ -\text{Beginning current liabilities}\\ =\$78,472-\$69,661\\ =\$8,811\end{array}$

Hence, the beginning net working capital is $8,811.

Compute the change in net working capital:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Change in net working capital}=\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Ending net working capital}-\\ \text{Beginning net working capital}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$29,122-\$8,811\\ =\$20,311\end{array}$

Hence, the change in net working capital is $20,311.

Compute the cash flow from assets:

The operating cash flow is $131,792, the change in net working capital is $16,502 and the net capital spending is $106,571.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Cash flow from assets}=\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Operating}\\ \text{cash flow}\end{array}\right)-\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Change in net}\\ \text{working capital}\end{array}\right)-\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Net capital}\\ \text{spending}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$131,792-\$20,311-\$106,571\\ =\$4,910\end{array}$

Hence, the cash flow from assets is $4,910.

To calculate: The cash flow to creditors

Answer to Problem 1CC

The cash flow to creditors is −$1,174.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Company SB has to pay interest expenses amounting to $11,954. The new net borrowings were $13,128$\left(\$119,976-\$106,848\right)$.

Formula:

$\text{Cash flow to creditors}=\text{Interest paid}-\text{Net new borrowing}$

Compute the cash flow to creditors:

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Cash flow to creditors}=\text{Interest paid}-\text{Net new borrowing}\\ =\$11,954-\$13,128\\ =\left(\$1,174\right)\end{array}$

Hence, the cash flow to creditors is −$1,174.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Cash flow to stockholders}=\text{Dividends paid}-\text{Net new equity raised}\\ =\$32,804-\$20,160\\ =\$12,644\end{array}$

Hence, the cash flow to stockholders is $12,644.
