1.The Concept of Cash Flow
 Cash
flow is one of the most important pieces of
information that a financial manager can derive
from financial statements
 The statement of cash flows in accounting
statements (in which interest payment is
deducted) does not provide us with the same
information that we are looking at here
 We will look at how cash is generated from
utilizing assets and how it is paid to those that
finance the purchase of the assets

Cash Flow From Assets: Identity

Cash Flow From Assets (CFFA) = Cash Flow to
Creditors + Cash Flow to Stockholders

2.The Balance Sheet
 The
balance sheet is a snapshot of the firm’s
assets and liabilities at a given point in time
 Assets are listed in order of liquidity
 Ease of conversion to cash
 Without significant loss of value
 Balance Sheet Identity
 Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders’ Equity

Market vs. Book Value



The balance sheet provides the book value of the
assets, liabilities and equity.
Market value is the price at which the assets, liabilities
or equity can actually be bought or sold.
Market value and book value are often very different.
1. Historical cost less accumulated depreciation bear little
resemblance to the value could be sold for today.
2. Balance sheet does not include the value of human capital,
customer loyalty, etc.

Which is more important to the decision-making
process?

3.Income Statement
 The
income statement is more like a video of the
firm’s operations for a specified period of time.
 You generally report revenues first and then
deduct any expenses for the period
Revenues – Expenses = Income
 Matching principle – GAAP says to show
revenue when it accrues and match the expenses
required to generate the revenue, so net income
is NOT a measure of the cash flow during the
period.

4.Taxes
 The
one thing we can rely on with taxes is that
they are always changing
 Marginal vs. average tax rates
 Marginal – the percentage paid on the next
dollar earned
 Average – the tax bill / taxable income

Example: Marginal Vs. Average
Rates
 Suppose
your firm earns $200,000 in taxable
income.
 What is the firm’s tax liability?
 What is the average tax rate?
 What is the marginal tax rate?
 If you are considering a project that will increase
the firm’s taxable income by $100,000, what tax
rate should you use in your analysis?

Example Solution



Corporate tax rate table (textbook)
Tax liability
.15(50,000)
+
.25(75,000 – 50,000)
+
.34(100,000 – 75,000)
+
.39(200,000 – 100,000)
= $ 61,250
Average tax rate
61,250/ 200,000 = 30.625%
= $ 7,500
= 6,250
= 8,500
= 39,000
$ 61,250

5.Cash Flow From Assets:
Calculation
The Cash Flow Identity
 Cash Flow From Assets (CFFA) = Cash Flow to
Creditors + Cash Flow to Stockholders
Cash Flow From Assets
 Cash Flow From Assets = Operating Cash Flow –
Net Capital Spending – Changes in NWC

Example 1: US Corporation

OCF (I/S) = EBIT + depreciation – taxes = $547
[Accounting definition of OCF = EBIT – interest – taxes + depreciation]



NCS ( B/S and I/S) = ending net fixed assets – beginning net fixed
assets + depreciation = $130
Changes in NWC (B/S) = ending NWC – beginning NWC = $330
CFFA = 547 – 130 – 330 = $87
CF to Creditors (B/S and I/S) = interest paid – net new borrowing =
$24
 CF to Stockholders (B/S and I/S) = dividends paid – net new equity
raised = $63
 CFFA = 24 + 63 = $87
The CF identity holds.
