Free Cash Flow (Cash flow after paying operating expenses & investments.) results from:
Free Cash Flow = [after-tax cash flow from operations] – [inc/dec in net working capital] – [inc/dec in gross fixed assets]
▪ Cash Flow from Operations – normal operating activities
▪ Assets investments – (1) net working capital (2) fixed assets
Calculating Cash Flow
1) Calc Cash flow from operations: [OP Income] + [Dep Exp] – [inc tax exp] = [after-tax cash flow from operations]
2) Calc Net working capital: [change in current assets] – [change in current liabilities]
3) Calc change in fixed assets: [this year’s fixed assets – last year’s fixed assets]
4) Compile Cash flow: After-tax cash flow from operations (1) Less current year investments: Investment in net working capital (2) Investment in long-term assets (3) Total Investments (2)+(3) Free Cash Flows total inv + (1)
