Sales 153,000
Costs 81,900
Other Expenses 5,200

Dividends 7,200
New Equity 2,600
Redeemed LT Debt 3,900
What is the operating cash flow?
What is the cash flow to creditors?
What is the cash flow to stockholders?
If net fixed assets increased by $20,250 during the year, what was the addition to NWC?
a. The operating cash flow is computed by using the below formula:
= EBIT - taxes + Depreciation
The Income Statement is presented as follows:
EBIT is computed as follows:
= Sales - Costs - Other Expenses - Depreciation
= $153,000 - $ 81,900 - $ 5,200 - $ 10,900
= $ 55,000
So the operating cash flow will be
= $ 55,000 - $ 16,330 + $ 10,900
= $ 49,570
b. The cash flow to creditors is computed as shown below:
Cash flow to creditors = Interest paid – Net new
borrowing
Cash flow to creditors = $ 8,400 – (–$ 3,900)
Cash flow to creditors = $ 12,300
c. Cash flow to stockholders is computed as follows:
Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends paid – Net new
equity
Cash flow to stockholders = $ 7,200 – $ 2,600
Cash flow to stockholders = $ 4,600
d. The addition to NWC is computed as follows:
Cash flow from assets is computed by using the below formula:
= Cash flow to creditors + Cash flow to
stockholders
= $ 12,300 + $ 4,600
Cash flow from assets = $ 16,900
Net capital spending is computed by using the below formula:
= Depreciation + Increase in fixed assets
= $ 10,900 + $ 20,250
= $ 31,150
We will use the below mentioned equation in order to find the change in net working capital
Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net
capital spending
$ 16,900 = $ 49,570 – Change in NWC – $ 31,150
Change in NWC = $ 1,520
