NOTE: All end of chapter problems were solved using a spreadsheet. Many problems require multiple
steps. Due to space and readability constraints, when these intermediate steps are included in this solutions
manual, rounding may appear to have occurred. However, the final answer for each problem is found
without rounding during any step in the problem.
Basic
Balance Sheet
CA $ 5,400 CL $ 4,100
NFA 28,100 LTD 10,600
OE ??
TA $33,500 TL & OE $33,500
We know that total liabilities and owners’ equity (TL & OE) must equal total assets of $33,500.
We also know that TL & OE is equal to current liabilities plus long-term debt plus owners’ equity,
so owners’ equity is:
Income Statement
Sales $742,000
Costs 316,000
Depreciation 39,000
EBIT $387,000
Interest 34,000
EBT $353,000
Taxes (21%) 74,130
Net income $278,870
Rearranging, we get:
The average tax rate is the total tax paid divided by taxable income, so:
The marginal tax rate is the tax rate on the next $1 of earnings, so the marginal tax rate is 32 percent.
Income Statement
Sales $49,800
Costs 23,700
Depreciation 2,300
EBIT $23,800
Interest 1,800
Taxable income $22,000
Taxes (22%) 4,840
Net income $17,160
OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – Taxes
OCF = $23,800 + 2,300 – 4,840
OCF = $21,260
11. Cash flow from assets = Cash flow to creditors + Cash flow to stockholders
= –$105,000 + 209,000 = $104,000
Cash flow from assets = $104,000 = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spending
= $104,000 = OCF – (–$55,000) – 1,500,000
Intermediate
14. The solution to this question works the income statement backwards. Starting at the bottom:
Recognize that EBT × Tax rate is the calculation for taxes. Solving this for EBT yields:
c. Net income was negative because of the tax deductibility of depreciation and interest expense.
However, the actual cash flow from operations was positive because depreciation is a non-cash
expense and interest is a financing expense, not an operating expense.
