Please see attached Apple case study and the excel file. I did most of the work. I only need help on question #3 (a & b).3. Add items to the statement of cash flows. This spreadsheet should calculate Jensen’s free cash flow. This is equal to cash generated from operations, minus cash needed for +NPV investments. It is necessary to remove investments in marketable securities from cash needed for investments, because this is typically where excess cash is parked.Furthermore, Apple gives employees options, and has no choice but to accept cash fromemployees when they exercise those options. Apple’s dividend will remain as well. A modified version of Jensen’s free cash flow would look like:a. Create a “cash needed for investing” item inside the statement of cash flows. This willequal Cash from Investing, minus Investment in Marketable & Equity Securt.b. Create a Jensen’s free cash flow item in the statement of cash flows. This will equal =cash from operations, + cash from financing activities, - cash needed for investing.You are free to modify this based on your own judgement.
