Like the Shiller PE Ratio, the Cyclically Adjusted Price-to-FCF takes the Free Cash Flow per Share from the past 10 years, adjusts it for inflation, and then calculates the average. This average is then used for the P/FCF calculation. Because it considers this 10-year average, it's often referred to as the CAPFCF Ratio.
The Shiller PE Ratio was first used by professor Robert Shiller to measure the valuation of the overall market. The similar calculation is applied by GuruFocus to calculate the Cyclically Adjusted Price-to-FCF.
Broadcom's Cyclically Adjusted FCF per Share for the quarter that ended in Sep. 2015 is calculated as:
For example, Broadcom's adjusted Free Cash Flow per Share data for the three months ended in Sep. 2015 was:
Adj_FreeCashFlowPerShare | = | Free Cash Flow per Share | / | CPI of Sep. 2015 (Change) | * | Current CPI (Sep. 2015) |
= | 0.648 | / | 100.3915 | * | 100.3915 | |
= | 0.648 |
Current CPI (Sep. 2015) = 100.3915.

Add all the adjusted free cash flow per share together and divide 10 will get our Cyclically Adjusted FCF per Share.
Please note that we use the CPI data of the country/region where the company is headquartered. If the CPI data for that country/region is not available, then we will use the CPI data of the United States as default.
Compared with the regular Price-to-Free-Cash-Flow, which works poorly for cyclical businesses, the Cyclically Adjusted Price-to-FCF smoothed out the fluctuations of free cash flow during business cycles. Therefore it is more accurate in reflecting the valuation of the company.
If a company has consistent business performance, the Cyclically Adjusted Price-to-FCF should give similar results to regular Price-to-Free-Cash-Flow.
