Financial Statements,
Taxes, and Cash Flow

1
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
decreasing 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. Why?
• Which is more important to the
decision-making process?

Income Statement

• You generally report revenues first


and then deduct any expenses for the
period
• Matching principle – GAAP says to
recognize revenue when it is fully
earned and match expenses required
to generate revenue to the period of
recognition

Work the Web

• Publicly traded companies must


file regular reports with the
Securities and Exchange
Commission
• These reports are usually filed
electronically and can be searched
at the SEC public site called
EDGAR

9
Taxes

• The one thing about taxes we can


rely on is that they will always be
changing
• Marginal vs. average tax rates
• Marginal – the percentage paid on
the next dollar earned
• Average – the tax bill / taxable
income
• Other taxes

10
Example: Marginal vs. Average
Rates
• Suppose your firm earns $4 million
in taxable income (pg 32,33).
• 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 $1 million, what tax
rate should you use in your
analysis?

Cash Flow From Assets

• Critical Piece of Info


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

Cash Flow From Assets = Operating


Cash Flow – Net Capital Spending
– Changes in NWC

12
Example: U.S. Corporation
• OCF (I/S) = EBIT + depreciation – taxes =
$547
• 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

Balance Sheet and Income
Statement Info
• Current Accounts
• 2007: CA = $1,500; CL = $1,300
• 2008: CA = $2,000; CL = $1,700
• Fixed Assets and Depreciation
• 2007: NFA = $3,000; 2008: NFA =
$4,000
• Depreciation expense = $300
• LT Liabilities and Equity
• 2007: LTD = $2,200; Common Stock =
$500; RE = $500
• 2008: LTD = $2,800; Common Stock =
$750; RE = $750
• Income Statement Information
• EBIT = $2,700; Interest Expense = $200;
Taxes = $1,000; Dividends = $1,250

14
Cash Flows
• OCF = $2,700 + $300 – $1,000 =
$2,000
• NCS = $4,000 – $3,000 + $300 =
$1,300
• Changes in NWC = ($2,000 – $1,700) –
($1,500 – $1,300) = $100
• CFFA = $2,000 – $1,300 – $100 = $600
• CF to Creditors = $200 – ($2,800 –
$2,200) = - $400
• CF to Stockholders = $1,250 – ($750 –
$500) = $1,000
• CFFA = - $400 + $1,000 = $600
• The CF identity holds.
