If positive, is it smaller or larger than 1.0?2. Quality of Earnings: The value of a stock depends among other things on the incomethat the company generates in future periods. (E.g. P/E ratio, NOPAT in corporatevaluation method.) Compare the income for each of the three years presented in thefinancial statements. Are there any non-recurring items, such as adjustments forchanges in accounting methods or estimates, changes in valuation allowances,extraordinary gains/losses or income/losses from discontinuing operations that shouldbe excluded from an estimate of future income or cash flows from this company? Canyou develop an estimate of recurring income from operations?3. Calculate the companys Free Cash Flow and compare it to the total dividends paid inthe most recent year. Explain how and why you calculated NOPAT the way you did.Could the company increase dividends? Why or why not?a. To do this you must first estimate your companys tax rate by comparing pretaxincome to income tax expense and rounding this number. If your company hasa loss, you may have to make an assumption regarding carry backs or carryforwards. If you assume a carryback is done, you may want to look at previousyears incomes to see, if you have something to carryback to.
