Overview: Cash-Flow Management is a very crucial part of working capital. It helps in ascertaining the amount of cash flow available in the management. This helps the organization in making the decision about future cash flows. This article is a case study. Tyco management, which has been urging Wall Street analysts to look at the company's free cash flow as the best way to judge Tyco's financial strength, defines free cash flow as cash generated from operations. Meyer, a former accounting professor, reportedly claims that Tyco boosted the free cash flow figure by excluding some cash spent to buy back a debt instrument, which became a big issue and serious threat to the company. Thus, this article throws light on the various steps and solutions adopted by the company to rectify this issue. To know about the case, refer to the article.
