2. Compute Free Cash Flows (show your computations) for the two most recent years. Free Cash Flows can be computed in several ways, but we will use this formula in our class:

Free Cash Flows = Cash flows from operating activities - Additions to property, plant and equipment - Dividends to shareholders

Additions to property, plant and equipment can be found in the investing activities section. Some companies call it Capital expenditures, Investments in property and equipment, or something similar.

Dividends to shareholders can be found in the financing activities section. Some companies call it Dividends paid or something similar.
