    There are basically 3 ways of calculating the FCF :
    Ope
ating cash Flow method
    Using Sales Revenue
    Using Net Operating Profits
    Hence we are going to go ahead with the Operating Cash Flow method since it's molre reliable and accurate being based on actual Cash flow derived from operation after adjusting the Capital spending. Also there is very little space for company to do any window dressing with the figures here.
    Using Operating cash Flow method     Operating Cash Flow −Capital Expenditures​
        2017    2018        2019
    Net Operating Cash Flow from Operations     $2,125.90    $2,515.20        $2,688.30
    Less Net Capital Spending     ($470.60)    ($470.80)        ($566.50)
    Free Cash Flow (FCF)    $1,655.30    $2,044.40        $2,121.80
    *Adjusted EBIT: When there are significant one-time Accounting non-cash charges we can adjust the EBIT to account for it.
