Explanation / Answer

Part A

Net operating working capital = operating current assets – operating current liabilities

Net operating working capital (2016) = 476,300 – 168,012

                                                                          = 308,288

Net operating working capital (2015) = 453,600 – 144,000

                                                                         = 309,600

Part B

Total net operating capital = Net operating working capital + Fixed assets

Total net operating capital (2016) = 308,288 + 330,750

                                                                    = 639,038

Total net operating capital (2015) = 309,600+315,000

                                                                    = 624,600

Part C

Investment in total net operating capital = total net operating capital 2016 - total net operating capital 2015

                                                                                = 639,038 – 624,600

                                                                                = 14,438

Part D

Net operating profit after taxes = EBIT x (1- t)

                                                                = 99,200x (1-0.40)

                                                                = 59,520

Part E

Free cash flow = NOPAT - Investment in total net operating capital

                                = 59,520 – 14,438

                                = 45,082

Part F

ROIC = NOPAT/ Net operating assets

                = 59,520 / 639,038

                = 9.31%
