CHAPTER 2 – REVIEWING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
questions
LG2-1 1. List and describe the four major financial statements.
The four basic financial statements are:
1. The balance sheet reports a firm’s assets, liabilities, and equity at a particular point in time.
2. The income statement shows the total revenues that a firm earns and the total expenses the
firm incurs to generate those revenues over a specific period of time—generally one year.
3. The statement of cash flows shows the firm’s cash flows over a given period of time. This
statement reports the amounts of cash the firm generated and distributed during a particular time
period. The bottom line on the statement of cash flows―the difference between cash sources and
uses―equals the change in cash and marketable securities on the firm’s balance sheet from the
previous year’s balance.
4. The statement of retained earnings provides additional details about changes in retained
earnings during a reporting period. This financial statement reconciles net income earned during
a given period minus any cash dividends paid within that period to the change in retained
earnings between the beginning and ending of the period.
LG2-1 2. On which of the four major financial statements (balance sheet, income statement, statement of
cash flows, or statement of retained earnings) would you find the following items?
a. earnings before taxes - income statement
b. net plant and equipment - balance sheet
c. increase in fixed assets - statement of cash flows
d. gross profits - income statement
e. balance of retained earnings, December 31, 20xx - statement of retained earnings and balance sheet
f. common stock and paid-in surplus - balance sheet
g. net cash flow from investing activities - statement of cash flows
h. accrued wages and taxes – balance sheet
i. increase in inventory - statement of cash flows
LG2-1 3. What is the difference between current liabilities and long-term debt?
Current liabilities constitute the firm’s obligations due within one year, including accrued wages and
taxes, accounts payable, and notes payable. Long-term debt includes long-term loans and bonds with
maturities of more than one year.
LG2-1 4. How does the choice of accounting method used to record fixed asset depreciation affect
management of the balance sheet?
Firm managers can choose the accounting method they use to record depreciation against their
fixed assets. Two choices include the straight-line method and the modified accelerated cost
recovery system (MACRS). Companies often calculate depreciation using MACRS when they
figure the firm’s taxes and the straight-line method when reporting income to the firm’s

Chapter 2 - Reviewing Financial Statements
stockholders. The MACRS method accelerates deprecation, which results in higher depreciation
expenses, lower taxable income, and lower taxes in the early years of a project’s life. The
straight-line method results in lower depreciation expenses, but also results in higher taxes in the
early years of a project’s life. Firms seeking to lower their cash outflows from tax payments will
favor the MACRS depreciation method.
LG2-1 5. What is bonus depreciation? How did the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 temporarily extend
and modify bonus depreciation?
Since 2001, businesses have had the ability to immediately deduct a percentage of the acquisition
cost of qualifying assets as "bonus depreciation." This additional depreciation deduction was
allowed to encourage business investment. However, bonus depreciation was a temporary
provision; the rate would have been 50 percent in 2017, 40 percent in 2018, and 30 percent in
2019, before phasing out in 2020. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 extended and modified
bonus depreciation, allowing businesses to immediately deduct 100 percent of the cost of eligible
property in the year it is placed in service, through 2022. The amount of allowable bonus
depreciation will then be phased down over four years: 80 percent will be allowed for property
placed in service in 2023, 60 percent in 2024, 40 percent in 2025, and 20 percent in 2026.
MACRS or straight-line depreciation is applied to any costs that do not qualify for bonus
depreciation.
LG2-1 6. What are the costs and benefits of holding liquid securities on a firm’s balance sheet?
The more liquid assets a firm holds, the less likely the firm will be to experience financial
distress. However, liquid assets generate little or no profits for a firm. For example, cash is the
most liquid of all assets, but it earns little, if any, return for the firm. In contrast, fixed assets are
illiquid, but provide the means to generate revenue. Thus, managers must consider the trade-off
between the advantages of liquidity on the balance sheet and the disadvantages of having money
sit idle rather than generating profits.
LG2-2 7. Why can the book value and market value of a firm differ?
A firm’s balance sheet shows its book (or historical cost) value based on Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP). Under GAAP, assets appear on the balance sheet at what the
firm paid for them, regardless of what assets might be worth today if the firm were to sell them.
Inflation and market forces make many assets worth more now than they were when the firm
bought them. So in most cases, book values differ widely from the market values for the same
assets—the amount that the assets would fetch if the firm actually sold them. For the firm’s
current assets—those that mature within a year―the book value and market value of any
particular asset will remain very close. For example, the balance sheet lists cash and marketable
securities at their market value. Similarly, firms acquire accounts receivable and inventory and
then convert these short-term assets into cash fairly quickly, so the book value of these assets is
generally close to their market value.
LG2-2 8. From a firm manager’s or investor’s point of view, which is more important―the book value of a
firm or the market value of the firm?
stockholders. The MACRS method accelerates deprecation, which results in higher depreciation
expenses, lower taxable income, and lower taxes in the early years of a project’s life. The
straight-line method results in lower depreciation expenses, but also results in higher taxes in the
early years of a project’s life. Firms seeking to lower their cash outflows from tax payments will
favor the MACRS depreciation method.

depreciation.

generally close to their market value.
LG2-2 8. From a firm manager’s or investor’s point of view, which is more important―the book value of a
firm or the market value of the firm?
Chapter 2 - Reviewing Financial Statements
Balance sheet assets are listed at historical cost. Managers would thus see little relation between the
total asset value listed on the balance sheet and the current market value of the firm’s assets.
Similarly, the stockowners’ equity listed on the balance sheet generally differs from the true market
value of the equity—in this case, the market value may be higher or lower than the value listed on the
firm’s accounting books. So, financial managers and investors often find that balance sheet values are
not always the most relevant numbers.
LG2-3 9. How did the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 change corporate tax laws?
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 is the most recent revision of corporate tax laws and
represents one of the most significant changes in more than 30 years. The Act permanently lowers
corporate taxes from a progressive schedule that saw tax rates as high as 35 percent to a flat 21
percent starting in 2018.
LG2-3 10. What is the difference between an average tax rate and a marginal tax rate?
A firm can figure the average tax rate as the percentage of each dollar of taxable income that the
firm pays in taxes. From your economics classes, you can probably guess that the firm’s marginal
tax rate is the amount of additional taxes a firm must pay out for every additional dollar of
taxable income it earns.
LG2-3 11. How did the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 change the tax deductibility of corporate
interest in debt?
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 contains a new limitation on the deductibility of net interest
expense (interest expense minus interest income) that exceeds 30 percent of a firm’s “adjusted
taxable income” starting in 2018. For tax years beginning before January 1, 2022, “adjusted taxable
income” is measured as a business’ EBITDA. For subsequent tax years, “adjusted taxable income” is
measured as EBIT, no longer including an add-back for depreciation and amortization. Thus,
beginning in 2022, the new limitation will become more severe. Prior corporate tax laws generally
allowed full deduction of interest paid or accrued by businesses.
LG2-3 12. How does the payment of interest on debt affect the amount of taxes the firm must pay?
Corporate interest payments appear on the balance sheet as an expense item, so we deduct the
allowable portion of interest payments from operating income when the firm calculates taxable
income. But, any dividends paid by corporations to their shareholders are not tax deductible. This is
one factor that encourages managers to finance projects with debt financing rather than to sell more
stock. Suppose one firm uses mainly debt financing and another firm, with identical operations, uses
mainly equity financing. The equity-financed firm will have very little interest expense to deduct for
tax purposes. Thus, it will have higher taxable income and pay more taxes than the debt-financed
firm. The debt-financed firm will pay fewer taxes and be able to pay more of its operating income to
asset funders, i.e., its bondholders and stockholders. So, as long as interest on debt is under the 30
percent allowable cap for tax deduction, even stockholders prefer that firms finance assets primarily
with debt rather than with stock.
Balance sheet assets are listed at historical cost. Managers would thus see little relation between the
total asset value listed on the balance sheet and the current market value of the firm’s assets.
Similarly, the stockowners’ equity listed on the balance sheet generally differs from the true market
value of the equity—in this case, the market value may be higher or lower than the value listed on the
firm’s accounting books. So, financial managers and investors often find that balance sheet values are
not always the most relevant numbers.

expense (interest expense minus interest income) that exceeds 30 percent of a firm’s “adjusted
taxable income” starting in 2018. For tax years beginning before January 1, 2022, “adjusted taxable
income” is measured as a business’ EBITDA. For subsequent tax years, “adjusted taxable income” is
measured as EBIT, no longer including an add-back for depreciation and amortization. Thus,
beginning in 2022, the new limitation will become more severe. Prior corporate tax laws generally
allowed full deduction of interest paid or accrued by businesses.

Corporate interest payments appear on the balance sheet as an expense item, so we deduct the
allowable portion of interest payments from operating income when the firm calculates taxable
income. But, any dividends paid by corporations to their shareholders are not tax deductible. This is
one factor that encourages managers to finance projects with debt financing rather than to sell more

mainly equity financing. The equity-financed firm will have very little interest expense to deduct for

percent allowable cap for tax deduction, even stockholders prefer that firms finance assets primarily
with debt rather than with stock.

LG2-4 13. The income statement is prepared using GAAP. How does this affect the reported revenue and
expense measures listed on the balance sheet?
Company accountants must prepare firm income statements following GAAP principles. GAAP
procedures require that the firm recognize revenue at the time of sale, but sometimes the
company receives the cash before or after the time of sale. Likewise, GAAP counsels the firm to
show production and other expenses on the balance sheet as the sales of those goods take place.
So production and other expenses associated with a particular product’s sale only appear on the
income statement (for example, cost of goods sold and depreciation) when that product sells. Of
course, just as with the revenue recognition, actual cash outflows incurred with production may
occur at a very different point in time—usually much earlier than GAAP principles allow the
firm to formally recognize the expenses. Further, income statements contain several non-cash
entries, the largest of which is depreciation. Depreciation attempts to capture the non-cash
expense incurred as fixed assets deteriorate from the time of purchase to the point when those
assets must be replaced. Let’s illustrate the effect of depreciation: Suppose a firm purchases a
machine for $100,000. The machine has an expected life of five years and at the end of those five
years, the machine will have no expected salvage value. The firm lays out a $100,000 cash
outflow at the time of purchase. But the entire $100,000 does not appear on the income statement
in the year that the firm purchases the machine—in accounting terms, the machine is not
expensed in the year of purchase. Rather, if the firm’s accounting department uses the straight-
line depreciation method, it deducts only $100,000/5, or $20,000, each year as an expense. This
$20,000 equipment expense is not a cash outflow for the firm. The person in charge of buying the
machine knows that the cash flow occurred at the time of purchase—and it totaled $100,000
rather than $20,000. So, figures shown on an income statement may not represent the actual cash
inflows and outflows for a firm during a particular period.
LG2-4 14. Why do financial managers and investors find cash flows to be more important than accounting
profit?
Financial managers and investors are far more interested in actual cash flows than they are in the
somewhat artificial, backward-looking accounting profit listed on the income statement. This is a
very important distinction between the accounting point of view and the finance point of view.
Finance professionals know that the firm needs cash, not accounting profit, to pay the firm’s
obligations as they come due, to fund the firm’s operations and growth, and to compensate the firm’s
ultimate owners: its shareholders. Thus, the statement of cash flows is a financial statement that
shows the firm’s cash flows over a given period of time. This statement reports the amounts of cash
that the firm generated and distributed during a particular time period.
LG2-5 15. Which of the following activities result in an increase (decrease) in a firm’s cash?
a. Decrease fixed assets – increase in cash
b. Decrease accounts payable – decrease in cash
c. Pay dividends – decrease in cash
d. Sell common stock – increase in cash
e. Decrease accounts receivable – increase in cash

f. Increase notes payable – increase in cash
LG2-5 16. What is the difference between cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing
activities, and cash flows from financing activities?
Cash flows from operations are those cash inflows and outflows that result directly from
producing and selling the firm’s products. These cash flows include: net income, depreciation,
and working capital accounts other than cash and operations-related short-term debt. Cash flows
from investing activities are cash flows associated with buying or selling of fixed or other long-
term assets. This section of the statement of cash flows shows cash inflows and outflows from
long-term investing activities—most significantly the firm’s investment in fixed assets. Cash
flows from financing activities are cash flows that result from debt and equity financing
transactions. These include raising cash by: issuing short-term debt, issuing long-term debt,
issuing stock, using cash to pay dividends, using cash to pay off debt, and using cash to buy back
stock.
LG2-5 17. What are free cash flows for a firm? What does it mean when a firm’s free cash flow is negative?
Free cash flows are the cash flows available to pay the firm’s stockholders and debtholders after the
firm has made the necessary working capital investments, fixed asset investments, and developed the
necessary new products to sustain the firm’s ongoing operations. If free cash flow is negative, the
firm's operations produce no cash flows available for investors.
LG2-6 18. What is earnings management?
Managers and financial analysts have recognized for years that firms use considerable latitude in
using accounting rules to manage their reported earnings in a wide variety of contexts. Indeed,
within the GAAP framework, firms can “smooth” earnings. That is, firms often take steps to
over- or understate earnings at various times. Managers may choose to smooth earnings to show
investors that firm assets are growing steadily. Similarly, one firm may be using straight-line
depreciation for its fixed assets, while another is using a modified accelerated cost recovery
method (MACRS), which causes depreciation to accrue quickly. If the firm uses MACRS
accounting methods, its managers write fixed asset values down quickly; assets will thus have
lower book value than if the firm used straight line depreciation methods. This process of
controlling a firm’s earnings is called earnings management.
LG2-6 19. What does the Sarbanes-Oxley Act require of firm managers?
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, passed in June 2002, requires public companies to ensure that their
corporate boards’ audit committees have considerable experience applying generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) for financial statements. The Act also requires that any firm’s senior
management must sign off on the financial statements of the firm, certifying the statements as
accurate and representative of the firm’s financial condition during the period covered. If a firm’s
board of directors or senior managers fails to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), the firm may be
delisted from stock exchanges.
f. Increase notes payable – increase in cash
LG2-5 16. What is the difference between cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing
activities, and cash flows from financing activities?
Cash flows from operations are those cash inflows and outflows that result directly from
producing and selling the firm’s products. These cash flows include: net income, depreciation,
and working capital accounts other than cash and operations-related short-term debt. Cash flows
from investing activities are cash flows associated with buying or selling of fixed or other long-
term assets. This section of the statement of cash flows shows cash inflows and outflows from
long-term investing activities—most significantly the firm’s investment in fixed assets. Cash
flows from financing activities are cash flows that result from debt and equity financing
transactions. These include raising cash by: issuing short-term debt, issuing long-term debt,
issuing stock, using cash to pay dividends, using cash to pay off debt, and using cash to buy back
stock.
LG2-5 17. What are free cash flows for a firm? What does it mean when a firm’s free cash flow is negative?
Free cash flows are the cash flows available to pay the firm’s stockholders and debtholders after the
firm has made the necessary working capital investments, fixed asset investments, and developed the
necessary new products to sustain the firm’s ongoing operations. If free cash flow is negative, the
firm's operations produce no cash flows available for investors.
LG2-6 18. What is earnings management?
Managers and financial analysts have recognized for years that firms use considerable latitude in
using accounting rules to manage their reported earnings in a wide variety of contexts. Indeed,
within the GAAP framework, firms can “smooth” earnings. That is, firms often take steps to
over- or understate earnings at various times. Managers may choose to smooth earnings to show
investors that firm assets are growing steadily. Similarly, one firm may be using straight-line
depreciation for its fixed assets, while another is using a modified accelerated cost recovery
method (MACRS), which causes depreciation to accrue quickly. If the firm uses MACRS
accounting methods, its managers write fixed asset values down quickly; assets will thus have
lower book value than if the firm used straight line depreciation methods. This process of
controlling a firm’s earnings is called earnings management.
LG2-6 19. What does the Sarbanes-Oxley Act require of firm managers?
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, passed in June 2002, requires public companies to ensure that their
corporate boards’ audit committees have considerable experience applying generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) for financial statements. The Act also requires that any firm’s senior
management must sign off on the financial statements of the firm, certifying the statements as
accurate and representative of the firm’s financial condition during the period covered. If a firm’s
board of directors or senior managers fails to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), the firm may be
delisted from stock exchanges.

basic 2-1 Balance Sheet You are evaluating the balance sheet for Goodman’s Bees Corporation.
problems From the balance sheet you find the following balances: cash and marketable securities =
LG2-1 $400,000, accounts receivable = $1,200,000, inventory = $2,100,000, accrued wages and taxes =
$500,000, accounts payable = $800,000, and notes payable = $600,000. Calculate Goodman Bees’
net working capital.
Net working capital = Current assets - Current liabilities.
Goodman’s Bees’ current assets =
Cash and marketable securities = $400,000
Accounts receivable = 1,200,000
Inventory = 2,100,000
Total current assets $3,700,000
and current liabilities =
Accrued wages and taxes = $500,000
Accounts payable = 800,000
Notes payable = 600,000
Total current liabilities $1,900,000
So the firm’s net working capital was $1,800,000 ($3,700,000 - $1,900,000).
LG2-1 2-2 Balance Sheet Casello Mowing & Landscaping’s year-end 2021 balance sheet lists current
assets of $435,200, fixed assets of $550,800, current liabilities of $416,600, and long-term debt of
$314,500. Calculate Casello’s total stockholders’ equity.
Recall the balance sheet identity in Equation 2-1: Assets = Liabilities + Equity. Rearranging this equation: Equity =
Assets – Liabilities. Thus, the balance sheets would appear as follows:

Fashions, Inc. Calculate Hunt Taxidermy’s tax liability, average tax rate, and marginal tax rate.
In this case, interest on the state-issued bonds is not taxable and should not be included in taxable income. Further,
the first 50 percent of the dividends received from Oakdale Fashions is not taxable. Thus, only 50 percent of the
dividends received are taxed, so:
Taxable income = $42,400,000 + (0.5)$1,000,000 = $42,900,000
Now Hunt Taxidermy’s tax liability will be:
Tax liability = 0.21 ($42,900,000) = $9,009,000
The $1,000,000 of dividend income increased Hunt Taxidermy’s tax liability by $105,000 (0.5 x $1,000,000 x 0.21).
Hunt Taxidermy’s resulting average tax rate is:
Average tax rage = $9,009,000/$42,900,000 = 21.00%
Finally, if Hunt Taxidermy earned $1 more of taxable income, it would pay 21 cents (based upon its tax rate of 21

In this case, interest on the state-issued bonds is not taxable and should not be included in taxable income. Further,
the first 50 percent of the dividends received from Hunt Taxidermy is not taxable. Thus, only 50 percent of the

Now Hunt Taxidermy’s tax liability will be:
Tax liability = 0.21 ($141,000,000) = $29,610,000
The $12,000,000 of dividend income increased Chapman & Power’s tax liability by $1,260,000 (0.5 x $12,000,000 x

Tax liability = 0.21 ($42,900,000) = $9,009,000
The $1,000,000 of dividend income increased Hunt Taxidermy’s tax liability by $105,000 (0.5 x $1,000,000 x 0.21).
Hunt Taxidermy’s resulting average tax rate is:
Average tax rage = $9,009,000/$42,900,000 = 21.00%
Finally, if Hunt Taxidermy earned $1 more of taxable income, it would pay 21 cents (based upon its tax rate of 21
percent) more in taxes. Thus, the firm’s marginal tax rate is 21 percent.
LG2-3 2-10 Corporate Taxes Chapman & Power Inc., is concerned about the taxes paid by the
company in 2021. In addition to $135,000,000 of taxable income, the firm received $15,500,000
of interest on state-issued bonds and $12,000,000 of dividends on common stock it owns in Hunt
Taxidermy. Calculate Chapman & Power’s tax liability, average tax rate, and marginal tax rate.
In this case, interest on the state-issued bonds is not taxable and should not be included in taxable income. Further,
the first 50 percent of the dividends received from Hunt Taxidermy is not taxable. Thus, only 50 percent of the
dividends received are taxed, so:
Taxable income = $135,000,000 + (0.5)$12,000,000 = $141,000,000
Now Hunt Taxidermy’s tax liability will be:
Tax liability = 0.21 ($141,000,000) = $29,610,000
The $12,000,000 of dividend income increased Chapman & Power’s tax liability by $1,260,000 (0.5 x $12,000,000 x
0.21). Hunt Taxidermy’s resulting average tax rate is:
Average tax rage = $29,610,000/$141,000,000 = 21.00%
Finally, if Chapman & Power earned $1 more of taxable income, it would pay 21 cents (based upon its tax rate of 21
percent) more in taxes. Thus, the firm’s marginal tax rate is 21 percent.

LG2-5 2-14 Free Cash Flow Tater and Pepper Corp. reported free cash flows for 2021 of $39.1 million and
investment in operating capital of $22.1 million. Tater and Pepper incurred $13.6 million in
depreciation expense and paid $28.9 million in taxes on EBIT in 2021. Calculate Tater and Pepper’s
2021 EBIT.
Tater and Pepper’s free cash flow for 2021 was:

LG2-1 2-22 Debt versus Equity Financing You are considering a stock investment in one of two firms
(AllDebt, Inc., and AllEquity, Inc.), both of which operate in the same industry and have
identical EBITDA of $14.7 million and operating income of $12.5 million. AllDebt, Inc.,
finances its $25 million in assets with $24 million in debt (on which it pays 10 percent interest
annually) and $1 million in equity. AllEquity, Inc., finances its $25 million in assets with no debt
and $25 million in equity. Both firms pay a tax rate of 21 percent on their taxable income.
Calculate the income available to pay the asset funders (the debt holders and stockholders) and
resulting return on asset-funders’ investment for the two firms.
With $14.7 million of EBITDA AllDebt Inc., may deduct up to $4.41 million ($14.7 x 30 percent) of interest
expense for tax purposes. Thus, AllDebt Inc., is allowed to deduct all of its interest expense.
AllDebt AllEquity

Net income Step 1. $1,817,000
Less: Common and preferred stock dividends $ 817,000
Addition to retained earnings $1,000,000
Step 1. Net income = Common and preferred stock dividends + Addition to retained earnings =
$817,000 + $1,000,000 = $1,817,000
Step 2. EBT (1 – Tax rate) = Net income => EBT = Net income/(1 – Tax rate) = $1,817,000/(1 - 0.21) = $2,300,000
Step 3. EBIT – Interest = EBT => EBIT = EBT + Interest = $2,300,000 + $850,000 = $3,150,000
Step 4. Gross profits = Net sales – Cost of goods sold = $11,250,000 – 7,500,000 = $3,750,000
Step 5. EBITDA = Gross profits – Other operating expenses = $3,750,000 – 250,000 = $3,500,000

with this financial leverage, the firm is considering reducing its debt by $2,500,000 by selling
additional shares of stock. The firm’s tax rate is 21 percent. The change in capital structure will
have no effect on the operations of the firm. Thus, EBIT will remain at $1,000,000. Calculate the
change in the firm’s EPS from this change in capital structure.
With $1,100,000 of EBITDA, the firm may deduct up to $330,000 ($1,100,000 x 30 percent) of interest expense for
tax purposes. Thus, given the current capital structure, the firm may deduct only $330,000 of its $360,000 interest
expense ($4,500,000 x 0.08) for tax purposes. Thus,
Taxable income = EBIT – Allowable interest deduction
= $1,000,000 - $330,000 = $670,000
Tax liability = 0.21x Taxable income
= 0.21($670,000) = $140,700
With the proposed change in capital structure, the firm may deduct all of its $160,000 ($2,000,000 x 0.08) interest
expense for tax purposes.
Number of shares of stock that must be sold to raise $2,500,000:
$2,500,000/$16 = 156,250
=> number of shares of stock outstanding after refinancing = 200,000 + 156,250 = 356,250

10,000,000 shares of stock selling at $10.00 per share. The firm is considering increasing its debt

The change in capital structure will have no effect on the operations of the firm. Thus, EBIT will

With $13,000,000 of EBITDA, the firm may deduct up to $3,900,000 ($13,000,000 x 30 percent) of interest expense

only $3,900,000 of its $4,875,000 interest expense ($75,000,000 x 0.065) for tax purposes. Thus,

LG2-3 2-27 Corporate Taxes The Dakota Corporation had a 2021 taxable income of $33,365,000
from operations after all operating costs but before (1) interest charges of $8,500,000, all of
which is tax deductible; (2) dividends received of $750,000; (3) dividends paid of $5,250,000;
and (4) income taxes. The firm’s EBITDA is $tax rate is 21 percent.
a. Calculate Dakota’s income tax liability.
The first 50 percent of the dividends received is not taxable. Thus, only 50 percent of the dividends received are
taxed, so:
Taxable income = $33,365,000 - $8,500,000 + (0.5)$750,000 = $25,240,000
Now Dakota Corp.’s tax liability will be:
Tax liability = 0.21 ($25,240,000) = $5,300,400
b. What are Dakota’s average and marginal tax rates on taxable income?
Dakota Corp.’s average tax rate is:
Average tax rate = $5,300,400/$25,240,000 = 21.00%
Finally, if Dakota Corp earned $1 more of taxable income, it would pay 21 cents (based on its tax rate of 21 percent)
more in taxes. Thus, the marginal tax rate is 21 percent.

Interest on the state-issued bonds is not taxable and should not be included in taxable income. Further, the first 50
percent of the dividends received from ArizonaTaco is not taxable. Thus, only 50 percent of the dividends received

Taxable income = $17,850,000 + (0.5)$760,000 = $18,230,000
Texas Taco’s tax liability will be:
Tax liability = 0.21 ($18,230,000) = $3,828,300
b. What are Texas Taco’s average and marginal tax rates on taxable income?
Texas Taco’s resulting average tax rate is:
Average tax rate = $3,828,300/$18,230,000= 21.00%
Finally, if Texas Taco earned $1 more of taxable income, it would pay 21 cents (based upon its tax rate of 21

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and
Interest on the state-issued bonds is not taxable and should not be included in taxable income. Further, the first 50
percent of the dividends received from ArizonaTaco is not taxable. Thus, only 50 percent of the dividends received
are taxed, so:
Taxable income = $17,850,000 + (0.5)$760,000 = $18,230,000
Texas Taco’s tax liability will be:
Tax liability = 0.21 ($18,230,000) = $3,828,300
b. What are Texas Taco’s average and marginal tax rates on taxable income?
Texas Taco’s resulting average tax rate is:
Average tax rate = $3,828,300/$18,230,000= 21.00%
Finally, if Texas Taco earned $1 more of taxable income, it would pay 21 cents (based upon its tax rate of 21
percent) more in taxes. Thus, the marginal tax rate is 21 percent.

LG2-5 2-39 Free Cash Flow Rebecky’s Flowers 4U, Inc., had free cash flows during 2021 of $43
million, NOPAT of $85 million, and depreciation of $14 million. Using this information, fill in
the blanks on Rebecky’s balance sheet below.
Rebecky’s operating cash flow for 2021 was:
OCF = NOPAT + Depreciation = ($85m. + $14m.) = $99m.
Rebecky’s free cash flow was:
FCF = Operating cash flow – Investment in operating capital
$43m. = $99m. - Investment in operating capital
So, Investment in operating capital = $99m. - $43m. = $56m.
IOC = ΔGross fixed assets + ΔNet operating working capital
$56m. = ($333m. - $300m.) + ΔNet operating working capital
=> ΔNet operating working capital = $56m. - ($333m. - $300m.) = $23m.
ΔNet operating working capital = $23m. = ∆Current assets - ∆Current liabilities
$23m. = ($221m. - $190m.) - ∆Current liabilities
=> ∆Current liabilities = ($221m. - $190m.) - $23m. = $8m.
=> 2021 Current liabilities = $110m. + $8m. = $118m.
and 2021 Current liabilities = Accrued wages and taxes + Accounts payable + Notes payable
$118m. = $17m. + Accounts payable + $45m.
=> Accounts payable = $118m. - $17m. - $45m. = $56m.
=> Long-term debt = $550m. - $118m. - $237m. = $195m.

$56m. = ($333m. - $300m.) + ΔNet operating working capital
=> ΔNet operating working capital = $56m. - ($333m. - $300m.) = $23m.
ΔNet operating working capital = $23m. = ∆Current assets - ∆Current liabilities
$23m. = ($221m. - $190m.) - ∆Current liabilities
=> ∆Current liabilities = ($221m. - $190m.) - $23m. = $8m.
=> 2021 Current liabilities = $110m. + $8m. = $118m.
and 2021 Current liabilities = Accrued wages and taxes + Accounts payable + Notes payable
$118m. = $17m. + Accounts payable + $45m.
=> Accounts payable = $118m. - $17m. - $45m. = $56m.

LG2-5 2-38 Free Cash Flow Vinny’s Overhead Construction had free cash flow during 2021 of $25.4
million. The change in gross fixed assets on Vinny’s balance sheet during 2021 was $7.0 million
and the change in net operating working capital was $8.4 million. Using this information, fill in
the blanks on Vinny’s income statement below.
IOC = ΔGross fixed assets + ΔNet operating working capital
=> IOC = $7.0m. + $8.4m. = $15.4m.
FCF = Operating cash flow – Investment in operating capital
=> $25.4m. = OCF – $15.4m.
=> OCF = $25.4m. + $15.4m. = $40.8m.
OCF = EBIT(1 – 0.21) + Depreciation
Using the numbers below: $40.8m. = EBIT(1 – 0.21) + $10.2m.
=> EBIT = ($40.8m. - $10.2m.)/(1 – 0.21) = $38.73m
