Anyone know what VC stands for in calculating Cash Flow?
gman_9112 asked:
I have an assignment due tomorrow and I don’t know what VC stands for. I’m positive it’s not variable costs. This is all the paper says:
VC RATE: 60.0% of revenues
The professor has T-RATE stand for tax rate, but I have no clue what the VC stands for. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

What was Pizza’s net cash flow from investing activities for 2007?
I’m not sure if i did this question correctly or not. For the amount of cash Pizza paid for the purchase I got $200,000 and I got $410,000 for the amount Pizza received for the sale of marketable securities. I took $410,000 – $200,000 and got $210,000.
Is that the correct answer?
