Question

You are considering an investment in Fields and Struthers, Inc. and want to evaluate the firm's free cash flow. From the income statement, you see that Fields and Struthers earned an EBIT of $52 million, paid taxes of $14 million, and its depreciation expense was $5 million. Fields and Struthers' gross fixed assets increased by $34 million from 2007 to 2008. The firm's current assets increased by $20 million and spontaneous current liabilities increased by $14 million. Calculate Fields and Struthers' operating cash flow(OCF), investment in operating capital (IOC) and free cash flow (FCF) for 2008.

Which answer is correct:

OCF = $47,000,000; IOC = $37,000,000; FCF = $10,000,000

OCF = $43,000,000; IOC = $40,000,000; FCF = $3,000,000

OCF = $49,000,000; IOC = $46,000,000; FCF = $3,000,000

OCF = $49,000,000; IOC = $46,000,000; FCF = $3,000,000
