Answer the following

E12.3. Reformulation and Analysis of Financial Statements (Medium) This exercise continues Exercise 10.6 in Chapter 10. The following financial statements were reported for a firm for fiscal year 2012 (in millions of dollars): Balance Sheet 2012 2011 2012 2011 Operating cash 60 50 Accounts payable 1,200 1,040 Short-term investments (at market) 550 500 Accrued liabilities 390 450 Accounts receivable 940 790 1,840 1,970 Inventory Long-term debt 910 840 Property and plant 2,840 2,710 5,300 Common equity 1,870 1,430 4,890 5,300 4,890 Statement of Shareholders' Equity Balance, end of fiscal year 2011 1,430 Share issues 822 Repurchase of 24 million shares (720) Cash dividend (180) Unrealized gain on debt investments 50 Net income 468 Balance, end of fiscal year 2012 1,870 The firm's income tax rate is 35%. The firm reported $15 million in interest income and $98 million in interest expense for 2012. Sales revenue was $3,726 million. a. Prepare a reformulated balance sheet and comprehensive income statement (as required in Exercise 10.6). b. Calculate free cash flow for 2012. c. Calculate the operating profit margin, asset turnover, and return on net operating assets for 2012. (For simplicity, use beginning-of-period balance sheet amounts in denominators.) d. Calculate individual asset turnovers and show that they aggregate to the total asset turnover. e. Show that the financing leverage equation holds for this firm: ROCE = RNOA + (FLEV x Operating spread) f. Calculate the after-tax net borrowing cost. If this borrowing cost were to be sustained in the future, what would the rate of return of common equity (ROCE) be if operating profitability (RNOA) fell to 6% and financial leverage decreased to 0.8? g. The implicit cost of credit for accounts payable and accrued liabilities is 3% (after tax). Show that the following leverage equation holds in this example: RNOA = ROOA + [OLLEV x (ROOA - 3.0%)]
