Abstract

Dependent cash flow (DEPCF) is the cash flow a business needs for its all operations. It could not be distributed its investors. In this article, three methods were created to calculate “dependent cash flow (DEPCF)”. They are: 1. DEPCF= CFFO-FCF +CFFI+CFFF, (1) 2. DEPCF= DEPCFFO+CFFI+CFFF, (2) and 3. DEPCF= CE+PPEPM+CFFI+CFFF. (3). In addition to these three methods, other two methods were created to calculate “dependent cash flow from operations (DEPCFFO)”. It is used as an item of the second DEPCF method as it could be seen above. The two methods created are: 1. DEPCFFO= CFFO-FCF, (4) and 2 DEPCFFO= CE+PPEPM (5) These five methods together explain a new corporate finance subject “dependent cash flow (DEPCF).
