    I really need assistance
    I am new to the 'business world' and need a bit of help, I am having a hard time understanding what they are asking in the following question:

    Last year rattner Robotics had $5,000,000 in operating income (EBIT). The company had net depreciation expense of $1,000,000 and interest expemse of $1,000,000. Its corporate tax rate was 40%. The company has $14,000,000 in non interest-bearing current liabilities; it has $15,000,000 in net plant and equiptment.. It estimates that it has an after- tax cost of capital of 10%.. Assume that Rattner's only non-cash item was depreciation.
    a.) What was the company's net income for the year?
    b.) What was the companies net cash flow?
    c.)What was the company's net operating profit after taxes? (NOPAT)
    d.) What was the company's operating cash flow?
    e.) If operating capital in the previous year was $24 million what was the company's free cash flow (FCF) for the year?
    f.) What was the company's Economic Value Added (EVA)?

    Are you having trouble with the terminology? Certainly there were lectures and you have a textbook. There must be work that has built up to this.

    Define terms and tackle each question at a time.

    Being an online student does not give one the benefits of a lecture. I am not that good with financing as it is, so the text is more or less greek to me

    Why are you taking the course?
    What course is it?
    Have you had this course all summer?
    If so, how have you been doing?
    Do you understand any of the terms in the problem that you posted?
    Are there more problems beside this one?

    No one here will work out the problem for you. You have to come up with answers and someone might help you figure out if you calculated incorrectly.
