Chapter 9, Problem 2P
AFN Equation
Refer to Problem 9-1. What would be the additional funds needed if the company’s year-end 2018 assets had been $7 million? Assume that all other numbers, including sales, are the same as in Problem 9-1 and that the company is operating at full capacity. Why is this AFN different from the one you found in Problem 9-1? Is the company’s “capital intensity” ratio the same or different?

As a financial analyst, you have been tasked with evaluating Randy Watson Music's free cash flow. Based on the 2022 income statement, BIT was $41 million, the tax rate was 21 percent, and its depreciation expense was $6 million. NOPAT gross fixed assets increased by $28 million from 2021 and 2022. The company's current assets increased by $18 million and current liabilities increased by $14 million.
Calculate the Investment in operating capital (IOC) for 2022.

If a firm is considering investing $100,000 at the end of 2021 for employee training (operating expense). The benefit of the training is to reduce turnover leading to a decrease in operating expenses of $10,000 per year in the future. The firm’s working capital to revenue ratio is 10% and the firm’s WACC is 6%. Is it better to analyze this investment decision by considering the incremental after-tax operating profit or the incremental after-tax cash flows generated by this investment? Why?
