Formula sheet - ANS Balance Sheet Identity Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Stockholders'
Equity
Net Working Capital (NWC) = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
Financial Cash Flow Identity CF from Assets = CF to Creditors + CF to Stockholders
Financial Cash Flow is also defined as OCF - Capital Spending - Additions to NWC
Operating Cash Flow (OCF) EBIT + Depreciation & Amortization - Taxes
Capital Spending (CapEx) (Ending net Fixed Assets - Beginning net Fixed Assets) + Depreciation
Additions to NWC Most Recent Year's NWC minus Previous Year's NWC
Each Year's NWC equals (Current Assets minus Current Liabilities)

,Note: All calculations will be as per the book formulas so if you follow those the positive versus
negative issue is as defined in the book. Keep in mind, for example, if the firm acquires more
new assets then it sells, this means the firm "spent" money (used cash) for this component of
its cash flow calculation.
Cash Flow to Creditors Interest Paid minus Net New Borrowing
Net New Borrowing (Ending Long-Term Debt) minus (Beginning Long-term Debt)
Cash Flow to Stockholders Dividends Paid minus Net New Equity
Net New Equity (Ending Common Stock) minus (Beginning Common Stock)
Remember the change in retained earnings is not part of calculating Net New Equity!
