Managers strive to increase the value of a firm. An increase in the intrinsic value of the firm’s stocks is a good measure of the increase in the value of the firm. Intrinsic value of a firm’s stock price is determined by calculating the present values of its free cash flows (FCF) discounted at a rate called the weighted average cost of capital (WACC). Tyler is a team member in Corporate Finance at a digital-content production company. He is required to forecast the free cash flows that the company will be able to generate in the next three years. Tyler takes into account only the following equation in his calculation: FCF = Sales Revenues – Operating Costs – Operating Taxes Will his calculation be an appropriate estimate of the FCF? No Yes Why or why not? Check all that apply. Because his calculation fails to include both the working capital and capital expenditures necessary to sustain the company’s operations Because his calculation fails to include the increase in the working capital required to grow sales Because his calculation fails to include the costs of the firm’s interest and dividend payments Because his calculation fails to recognize the increase in sales revenues

No. Because his calculation fails to include both the working capital and capital expenditures necessary to sustain the company’s operations

Explanation:

Free Cash Flow (FCF) can simply be defined as the net flow for a company after taking account of cash operating expenses, taxes (some textbooks may omit this), and investments in working capital and capital expenditure required to sustain continuous business operations.

As such, an appropriate formula for FCF would be:

sales revenue - cash operating cost (this will exclude depreciation) - operating taxes - investment in working capital - capital expenditure.

Tyler's formula did not include investment in working capital and capital expenditure, thus making it incomplete.

steering wheels are always situated on the left side of the car.

always drive on the right side of the road.

white lines separate lanes of traffic traveling the same direction.

hashed or broken lines means you may change lanes when it is safe.

solid white lines mean stay in your lane.

yellow lines separate traffic moving in opposing directions.

hashed or broken yellow lines mean you can carefully pass, paying attention to oncoming traffic.

never cross a solid yellow line (or double yellow line).

when turning left at an intersection, pass in front of any cars that are turning left from the opposing direction (do not try to pass behind them).

use the left lane to pass other cars traveling your direction.

do not pass in the right lane unless absolutely necessary.

if you are driving in the far left hand lane and someone would like to pass you, move over to the right lane when it is safe to do so and allow them to pass.

you must always yield to pedestrians.

come to a complete stop whenever you see pedestrians trying to cross the street.

never pass a school bus if it has flashing red lights. wait until the lights have stopped.

be aware of bicyclists. often they share the road with cars and are supposed to also follow general traffic laws.

be particularly careful about driving in cities with bike lanes -- always check before turning that a bike is not coming.

it is mandatory to pull over or stop at an intersection to allow an emergency vehicle to pass you if you see one traveling with lights flashing and/or a siren running.

do not overuse your car horn. horns are used almost exclusively for emergency situations or for when you feel unsafe.
