This is a great article. As an accountant & investor I sometimes struggle to explain some of the meanings you have laid out here to friends in a way they can understand. You have laid them out so clearly that I'll have no issue sharing this with them in the future!

My stock:

.

50% of Net Income is added into the Total Equity or Retained Earnings.

.

50% of Net Income is used for dividend payout and business reinvestment.

.

Business reinvestment is funded by net cash generated by operating activities (OCF).

.

Dividend payout is funded by the FCF or Owner's Earning.

.

Net Income is the mother of OCF & FCF.
