Accounts Payables v.s. Accrued Expense

Both accounts payables and accrued expenses are liabilities. Accounts payable is the total amount of short-term obligations or debt a company has to pay to its creditors for goods or services bought on credit. With accounts payables, the vendor's or supplier's invoices have been received and recorded. On the other hand, accrued expenses are the total liability that is payable for goods and services that have been consumed by the company or received. However, accrued expenses are those bills in which an invoice or bill has not yet been received. As a result, accrued expenses can sometimes be an estimated amount of what's owed, which is adjusted later to the exact amount, once the invoice has been received. Conversely, accounts payable should represent the exact amount of the total owed from all of the invoices received.

To that, companies add the word "other" to describe those current liabilities that are not significant enough to identify separately on their own lines in financial statements, so they are grouped together as "other current liabilities."

Change in Other Working Capital

This payment, which is usually made monthly or quarterly, is sometimes called the coupon. At the end of the period, the borrower pays back the lender in full.

Deferred Income Tax

Deferred income taxes are taxes that a company will eventually pay on its taxable income, but which are not yet due for payment.

The calculation of equity is a company's total assets minus its total liabilities, and is used in several key financial ratios such as ROE.

Forward P/E

Forward P/E is a version of the ratio of price-to-earnings that uses forecasted earnings for the P/E calculation. Because forward P/E uses estimated earnings per share (EPS), it may produce incorrect or biased results if actual earnings prove to be different. Analysts often combine forward and trailing P/E estimates to make a better judgment.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow (FCF) represents the cash available for the company to repay creditors or pay dividends and interest to investors.
