1.
List four types of financial statements that the company’s annual report typically include. State three items that can be found in each of the financial statement of Computron Inc
The four types of financial statements typically included in a company's annual report are
a.
Income Statement: sales, net income, cost of goods sold
b.
Cash flow Statements: Operating Cash Flow, Investing Cash Flow, Financing Cash Flow
c.
Statement of Stockholders' Equity: Retained Earnings, Dividends, Common Stock
d.
Balance sheet: Assets, Shareholders Equity, Liabilities
2.
Determine Computron’s net income for the year. Show your calculation
Net Income = (EBIT−Interest Expense) × (1−Tax Rate)
Net Income=(4million−1million) × (1−0.25) Net Income = $2.25million
3.
What was Computron’s net cash flow?
Net Cash Flow = Net Income + Depreciation Expense
Net Cash Flow = 2.25million+1million= $3.25million
4.
What was Computron’s net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT)?
NOPAT= EBIT × (1−Tax Rate)
NOPAT = 4million × (1−0.25) = $3million
5.
Calculate net operating working capital and total net operating capital for the year.
NOWC = Operating Current Assets - Operating Current Liabilities NOWC = $14million - $4million NOWC = $10million Total net Operating Capital = NOWC + Net plant and Equipment TNOC = $10million + $15million TNOC = $25million
6.
Calculate Computron’s free cash flow for the year if net operating capital in the previous year was $24 million.
Free Cash Flow (FCF)=NOPAT−Net Investment in Operating Capital
Net Investment in Operating Capital = Total Net Operating Capital Current Year −Total Net Operating Capital Previous Year
Net Investment in Operating Capital = $ 25 million - $24million = $1 million
FCF = $3million - $1million
FCF = $2million
7.
Explain to the chairman of the board five uses of free cash flow that can help maximize the value of the firm.
1.
Debut Reduction:
Utilizing available cash flow to reduce debt is a viable tactic for enhancing the company's financial health. By reducing debt levels, the company can lower interest expenses, improve its credit rating, and increase its borrowing capacity. This can lead to lower financing costs and greater financial flexibility, ultimately enhancing the firm's value.
2.
Dividend Payments:
Allocate free cash flow to shareholders through dividend distributions. Consistent dividend disbursements appeal to investors in search of income, potentially boosting the company's stock value and overall appeal to investors.
3.
Shares Repurchases:
An alternative method for employing available cash flow involves engaging in share buybacks. When the company repurchases its own shares from the market, it decreases the total outstanding shares, potentially leading to an increase in earnings per share (EPS) and a potential rise in the stock price. Share repurchases may also convey confidence in the company's future outlook, attracting additional investors and augmenting the overall value of the firm.
4.
Capital Expenditures (CapEx):
Reinvest free cash flow into strategic capital expenditures. Funding strategic investments, research and development, infrastructure upgrades, market expansion, acquisitions, and efficiency improvements. It enables companies to future revenue growth and profitability, innovation, and long-term competitiveness 5.
Acquisitions and Strategic Investments:
companies to pursue mergers, acquisitions, or strategic partnerships, facilitating expansion into new markets, diversification, and enhancing competitive positions. It enables firms to invest strategically, driving long-term growth and shareholder value.

Question: When preparing financial statements, which involve the culmination of various accounting principles and concepts, the process is crucial in portraying a company's financial health and performance. Among the key components, the income statement and the balance sheet stand as fundamental snapshots. The income statement delineates a company's revenues, expenses, and ultimately its profitability over a specific period, employing either the accrual basis or cash basis accounting. On the other hand, the balance sheet provides an overview of a company's assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity at a given point in time, adhering to the accounting equation where assets are equal to liabilities plus shareholders' equity. Furthermore, the matching principle necessitates that expenses be recorded in the same period as the related revenues they helped generate, facilitating a more accurate representation of the company's financial performance.
