# Free Cash Flow Conversion Rate Recheck

Recheck the free cash flow conversion rate against the figures that produce it.

## Scope
Preparation and review only. No account action or professional decision.

## Inputs
The free cash flow and the EBITDA used for the conversion rate.

## Workflow
1. Record free cash flow as used.
2. Record EBITDA as used.
3. Recompute the rate as FCF divided by EBITDA.
4. Return the recheck without changing the model.

## Output contract
company | fcf | ebitda | rate_recomputed | rate_quoted | verdict

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional company reported free cash flow of 320 and EBITDA of 400: recomputed conversion rate of 80% against a quoted 75%, a 5-point understatement.

## Review gates
Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
