Answer #1

Estimation of free cash flows to the firm last year.

(Amount in millions)

EBIT of last year - $60

Adjusted EBIT - $60 [$60+$50-$50]

EBIT(1-.4)    - $36

Add: Depreciation - + $50

Add: Amortization - nil [since amortization of acquisitions is included in current year it is not required  to be added in previous years calculation]

Less:

change in working capital - ($40 ) [120-80]

Capital expenditure - ( $30)

Free cash flows for the firm- $16.00

So, Free cash flows for the firm last year was $16 million.
