Use
  of Cash
 Cash
  Flow from Operations: Five Steps
1.      Add back depreciation.
2.      Subtract (add) any increase (decrease) in accounts
  receivable.
3.      Subtract (add) any increase (decrease) in inventory.
4.      Subtract (add) any increase (decrease) in other current
  assets.
5.      Add (subtract) any increase (decrease) in accounts payable
  and other accrued expenses

Chapter 3 HW  
1.      For
  the above precision tool example, work out the cash flow statement
2.     
  Firm AAA just showed how it
  operated in the prior year.
Sales = $2,000; Cost of Goods Sold =
  $1,000; Depreciation Expense = $200; Administrative Expenses = $180; Interest
  Expense = $30; Marketing Expenses = $50; and Taxes = $200.  Prepare income statement
3. A firm has $2000 in current assets, $3000 in fixed assets, $300 in accounts receivables, $300 accounts payable, and $800 in cash. What is the amount of the inventory? (hint: 900)
4.     
  A
  firm has net working capital of $1000. Long-term debt is $5000, total assets
  are $8000, and fixed assets are $5000. What is the amount of the total
  equity? (Hint: to find total equity, you need to calculate total debt, which
  is a sum of long term debt and short term debt. Short term can be found from
  new working capital.) (hint: 1000)
5. Andre's Bakery has sales of $100,000 with costs of $50,000. Interest expense is $20,000 and depreciation is $10,000. The tax rate is 35 percent. What is the amount of tax paid? (hint: 7000)(hint: tax = taxable income * tax rate and taxable income = EBT)
6. Andre's Bakery has sales of $100,000 with costs of $50,000. Interest expense is $20,000 and depreciation is $10,000. The tax rate is 35 percent. The company also paid $3,000 for dividend. What is the retained earning? (hint: retained earning = net income - dividend)(hint: 10,000)

For discussion:
·         What is this “long term debt”?
·         Who is the lender of this “long term debt”?
So this long term debt is called bond in the financial
  market. Where can you find the pricing information and other specifications
  of the bond issued by WMT?

2.      2.
  Understand what is coupon, coupon rate, yield, yield to maturity, market
  price, par value, maturity, annual bond, semi-annual bond, current yield.
 
3.      3.
  Understand how to price bond
Bond price = abs(pv(yield,
  maturity, coupon, 1000))  -------
  annual coupon
Bond price = abs(pv(yield/2,
  maturity*2, coupon/2, 1000)) ------- semi-annual coupon
 
Also change the yield and
  observe the price changes. Summarize the price change pattern and draw a
  graph to demonstrate your findings.
 
Again, when yield to maturity
  of this semi_annual coupon bond is 3%, how should this WMT
  bond sell for?
 
4.      Understand
  how to calculate bond returns
Yield to maturity =
  rate(maturity, coupon,  -market price, 1000) – annual coupon
Yield to maturity =
  rate(maturity*2, coupon/2,  -market price, 1000)*2 – semi-annual
  coupon
 
For example, when the annual
  coupon bond is selling for $1,200, what is its return to investors?
 
For example, when the semi-annual
  coupon bond is selling for $1,200, what is its return to investors?
 
5.      Current
  yield: For the above bond, calculate current yield.
6.      Zero
  coupon bond: coupon=0 and treat it as semi-annual coupon bond.
Example: A ten year zero coupon bond is selling for $400. How
  much is its yield to maturity?
A ten year zero coupon
  bond’s yield to maturity is 10%. How much is its price?
 
7.      Understand
  what is bond rating and how to read those ratings. (based on z
  score. What is z score?)
a.       Who
  are Moody, S&P and Fitch?
b.      What
  is IBM’s rating?
c.       Is
  the rating for IBM the highest?
d.      Who
  earned the highest rating?

Summary of bond pricing EXCEL functions
To calculate bond price (annual coupon bond):
Price=abs(pv(yield to maturity, years left to
  maturity, coupon rate*1000, 1000)
 
To calculate yield to maturity (annual coupon
  bond)::
Yield to maturity = rate(years left to
  maturity, coupon rate *1000, -price, 1000)
 
To calculate bond price (semi-annual
  coupon bond):
Price=abs(pv(yield to maturity/2, years
  left to maturity*2, coupon rate*1000/2, 1000)
 
To calculate yield to maturity (semi-annual
  coupon bond):
Yield to maturity = rate(years left to
  maturity*2, coupon rate *1000/2, -price, 1000)*2
 
To calculate number of years left(annual
  coupon bond)
Number of years =nper(yield to maturity,  coupon
  rate*1000, -price, 1000)
 
To calculate number of years left(semi-annual
  coupon bond)
Number of years =nper(yield to
  maturity/2,  coupon rate*1000/2, -price, 1000)/2
 
To calculate coupon (annual coupon bond)
Coupon = pmt(yield to maturity, number of
  years left, -price, 1000)
Coupon rate = coupon / 1000
 
To calculate coupon (semi-annual coupon bond)
Coupon = pmt(yield to maturity/2, number of
  years left*2, -price, 1000)*2
Coupon rate = coupon / 1000
 
 
Math Formula (FYI)
 

C: Coupon, M: Par, $1,000; i: Yield to maturity; n:
  years left to maturity
 
 
For Semi-annual, F=2 for semi-annual coupon
 
 
M: Par, $1,000;  i:
  Yield to maturity; n: years left to maturity

Can
  we figure out the stock price of Wal-Mart based on dividend, with reasonable
  assumptions?
Dividend Growth Model
        Po= D1/(r-g) or Po= Do*(1+g)/(r-g)
     R = D1/Po+g = Do*(1+g)/Po+g

Details
  about how to derive the model mathematically (FYI)
The Gordon growth model is a simple discounted cash flow (DCF)
  model which can be used to value a stock, mutual fund, or even the entire
  stock market.  The model is named after Myron Gordon who first published
  the model in 1959.
The Gordon model assumes that a
  financial security pays a periodic dividend (D) which
  grows at a constant rate (g). These growing dividend payments are
  assumed to continue forever. The future dividend payments are discounted at
  the required rate of return (r) to find the price (P) for the stock
  or fund.
Under these simple assumptions, the
  price of the security is given by this equation:

In this equation, I’ve
  used the “0” subscript
  on the price (P) and the “1” subscript
  on the dividend (D) to indicate that the price is calculated at time zero and
  the dividend is the expected dividend at the end of period one. However, the
  equation is commonly written with these subscripts omitted.
Obviously, the assumptions built
  into this model are overly simplistic for many real-world valuation
  problems. Many companies pay no dividends, and, for those that do,
  we may expect changing payout ratios or growth rates as the
  business matures.
Despite these
  limitations, I believe spending some time experimenting with the Gordon
  model can help develop intuition about the relationship between
  valuation and return.
The Gordon growth model calculates the present
  value of the security by summing an infinite series of discounted dividend
  payments which follows the pattern shown here:

Multiplying both sides of the previous
  equation by (1+g)/(1+r) gives:

We can then subtract the second equation
  from the first equation to get:

Rearranging and simplifying:


Finally, we can simplify further to get
  the Gordon growth model equation

From the 20-page cellphone contract to the five-pound employee
  handbook, even the simple things seem to be getting more complicated.
Companies have been complicating
  things for themselves, too—analyzing hundreds of factors when making
  decisions, or consulting reams of data to resolve every budget dilemma. But
  those requirements might be wasting time and muddling priorities.
So argues Donald Sull, a lecturer at the Sloan School
  of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who has also
  worked for McKinsey & Co. and Clayton, Dubilier & Rice LLC. In the book Simple
  Rules: How to Thrive in a Complex World, out this week from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt HMHC -1.36%, he and Kathleen Eisenhardt of Stanford University claim that
  straightforward guidelines lead to better results than complex formulas.
Mr. Sull recently spoke with At Work about
  what companies can do to simplify, and why five basic rules can beat a 50-item
  checklist. Edited excerpts:
WSJ: Where, in the business context, might “simple rules” help more than a complicated
  approach?
Donald Sull: Well, a common decision that people face in
  organizations is capital allocation. In many organizations, there will be
  thick procedure books or algorithms–one company I worked with had an
  algorithm that had almost 100 variables for every project. These are very
  cumbersome approaches to making decisions and can waste time. Basically, any
  decision about how to focus resources—either people or money or attention—can
  benefit from simple rules.
WSJ: Can you give an example of how that simplification
  works in a company?
Sull: There’s a German company called Weima GmBH that makes shredders. At one point, they
  were getting about 10,000 requests and could only fill about a thousand
  because of technical capabilities, so they had this massive problem of
  sorting out which of these proposals to pursue.
They had a very detailed
  checklist with 40 or 50 items. People had to gather data and if there were
  gray areas the proposal would go to management. But because the data was hard
  to obtain and there were so many different pieces, people didn’t always fill out the
  checklists completely. Then management had to discuss a lot of these
  proposals personally because there was incomplete data. So top management is
  spending a disproportionate amount of time discussing this low-level stuff.
Then Weima came up with guidelines that the
  frontline sales force and engineers could use to quickly decide whether a
  request fell in the “yes,” “no” or “maybe” category. They did it with five
  rules only, stuff like “Weima had to collect at least 70% of the
  price before the unit leaves the factory.”
Or, take Frontier Dental
  Laboratories in Canada. They were working with a sales force of two covering
  the entire North American market. Limiting their sales guidelines to a few
  factors that made someone likely to be receptive to Frontier—stuff like “dentists who have their own
  practice” and “dentists with a website”—helped
  focus their efforts and increase sales 42% in a declining market.
WSJ: Weima used five factors—is that the
  optimal number? And how do you choose which rules to follow?
Sull: You should have four to six rules. Any more than that,
  you’ll spend too much time
  trying to follow everything perfectly. The entire reason simple rules help is
  because they force you to prioritize the goals that matter. They’re easy to
  remember, they don’t confuse or stress you, they save time.
They should be tailored to your
  specific goals, so you choose the rules based on what exactly you’re trying
  to achieve. And you should of course talk to others. Get information from
  different sources, and ask them for the top things that worked for them. But
  focus on whether what will work for you and your circumstances.
WSJ: Is there a business leader you can point to who has
  embraced the “simple rules” guideline?
Donald Sull: Let’s look at when Alex Behring took over America Latina Logistica SARUMO3.BR +1.59%, the Brazilian
  railway and logistics company. With a budget of $15 million, how do you
  choose among $200 million of investment requests, all of which are valid?
The textbook business-school
  answer to this is that you run the NPV (net present value) test on each
  project and rank-order them by NPV. Alex Behring knows this. He was at the
  top of the class at Harvard Business School.
But instead, he
  decided what the most important goals were. You can’t achieve everything at
  once. In their case, their priorities were removing bottlenecks on growing
  revenues and minimizing upfront expenditure. So when allocating money, they
  had a bias for projects that both addressed the bottleneck problem and, for
  example, used existing tracks and trains.
Similarly, the global-health arm
  of the Gates Foundation gets many, many funding requests. But since they know
  that their goal is to have the most impact worldwide, they focus on projects
  in developing countries because that’s where the money will stretch farther.
