Explanation / Answer

FCF =[EBIT -Tax +depreciation]- [capital expenditure +Change in NWC]

    = [10010000-2804000+7200000]- [36,000,000 +0]

   = 14406000-36000000

    = - 21,594,000

**depreciation included in operating cost =36,000,000/5 = 7200000

sales 13,000,000 less:cost [.23*13,000,000] (2,990,000) Earning before interest and tax 10010000 lesS:Interest (3,000,000) EBT 7010000 Less:Tax   [7010000*.40] (2804000) Net income 4206000
