Question

Tropetech Inc. has an expected net operating profit after taxes, EBIT(1 – T), of $2,400 million in the coming year. In addition, the firm is expected to have net capital expenditures of $360 million, and net operating working capital (NOWC) is expected to increase by $45 million. How much free cash flow (FCF) is Tropetech Inc. expected to generate over the next year?

Answer 1

Answer:

FCF = $1,995 million

Explanation:

DATA

EBIT(1-T) = $2,400 million

Net Capital Expenditure = $360 million

Net operating working capital (NOWC) = $45 million

Free cash flow (FCF) expected to generate over next year can be calculated as

FCF = EBIT(1-T) - Capital Expenditure - Net operating working capital (NOWC)

FCF = $2,400 million - $360 million - $45million

FCF = $1,995 million
