1.Pepsi recently reported (in millions) $8,250 of sales, $5,750 of operating costs other than depreciation, and $1,100 of depreciation. The company had $3,200 of outstanding bonds that carry a 5% interest rate, and its federal-plus-state income tax rate was 35%. In order to sustain its operations and thus generate future sales and cash flows, the firm was required to make $1,250 of capital expenditures on new fixed assets and to invest $300 in net operating working capital. By how much did the firm's net income exceed its free cash flow? Do not round the intermediate calculations.

What was the firm's Economic Value Added (EVA), i.e., how much value did management add to stockholders' wealth during 2017?
