Analyzing Cash Returned to Stockholders
Question 3
FCFE = Net Income – Net Capital Expenditure -Change in working Capital+ Change in debt | ||||
Initial working capital | Working capital after the increase | Change in working capital | ||
25,000,000 | 40,000,000 | 15,000,000 | ||
Net Income | Net Depreciation | Capital Expenditure | Change in working capital | FCFE |
100,000,000 | 50,000,000 | 80,000,000 | 15,000,000 | 55,000,000 |
Free cash flow is a function of sources of cashless uses of cash. For Lube Oil, the free cash flow will be the total sources of cash (Net income & Depreciation), less the total benefits of money (Capital expenditure & Working capital needs).

The firm’s cash balance change during the year is a function of the firm’s free cash flow less nonregular expenditures.
First, we evaluate the firm’s free cash flow.
Free cash flow is a function of sources of cashless uses of cash. For Lube Oil, the free cash flow will be the total money of money (Net income & Depreciation), less the unlimited cash (Capital expenditure & Working capital needs).
πΉπΆπΉ=(πππ‘ ππππππ+π·ππππππππ‘πππ)β(πΆππππ‘ππ ππ₯ππππππ‘π’ππ+πππππππ πππππ‘ππ πππππ )
Where:
πππ‘ ππππππ=$100π
π·ππππππππ‘πππ=$50π
πΆππππ‘ππ ππ₯ππππππ‘π’ππ=$80π
πππππππ πππππ‘ππ πππππ =$40πβ$25π=$15π
Substituting the values into the equation:
πΉπΆπΉ=(100+50)β(80+15)
πΉπΆπΉ=$55π
Next, we evaluate the nonregular expenditure incurred by the firm, which includes the dividend payment of $20M and the stock buyback of $25M.

πππ‘ππ πππ π‘πππ ππ₯ππππππ‘π’ππ=$20π+25π=$45π
Lastly, we evaluate the change in the cash balance during the year.

We consider the effect of the new debt figures to evaluate the difference in previous answers due to the change in debt position.
Since the debt at the end of the year is more than the value at the beginning, there is an increase in debt during the year, which translates to an increase in sources of cash. An increase in head money of cash, in turn, increases the free cash flow value and the cash balance.
