Answer to Problem 14P

The free cash flow in 2015 for Company B is $11,175.

Therefore the capital expenditure is $8,000

Determine the free cash flow for 2015

FreeCashFlow2015=[((EBIT×(1Tax))+Depreciation)(IncreaseinNetOperatingWorkingCapital+CapitalExpenditure)]=[(($39,000×(140%))+$5,000)(($53,275$44,000)+$8,000)]=[$23,400+$5,000$17,275]=$11,125

Explanation of Solution

Given,

Net operating income is $39,000.

Income tax rate is 40%.

Total invested capital $103,725.
