...PA RT T WO c ha p te r Understanding Financial Statements and Cash Flow 2 LO 1 LO 2 LO 3 LO 4 Financial Statements, Taxes, and Cash Flow W hen a company announces a “write-off,” it frequently means that the value of the company’s assets has declined. AFTER STUDYING THIS CHAPTER, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO: Differentiate between accounting value (or “book” value) and market value. Distinguish accounting income from cash flow. Explain the difference between average and marginal tax rates. Determine a firm’s cash flow from its financial statements. For example, in the first quarter of 2009, luxury homebuilder Toll Brothers said it was writing down $157 million in assets, much of which was a reflection of the reduced value of land the company owned. Of course, Toll Brothers was not the only homebuilder suffering. Hovnanian Enterprises announced it would take a $132 million write-off, and Centex Corp. announced a $590 million writeoff. At the same time, D. R. Horton, the largest homebuilder by volume, had a much smaller write-off of only $56 million. However, D. R. Horton had already written off $1.15 billion in the fourth quarter of 2008. So did stockholders in these homebuilders lose hundreds of millions of dollars (or more) because of the write-offs? The answer is probably not. Understanding why ultimately leads us to the main subject of this chapter: that all important substance known as cash flow.
