Proposition 38.13.10. Let R be a domain. Let R \to S be a ring map of finite type. Let M be a finite S-module.

  1. If S is flat over R, then S is a finitely presented R-algebra.

  2. If M is flat as an R-module, then M is finitely presented as an S-module.

Proof. Part (1) is a special case of Lemma 38.13.9. For Part (2) choose a surjection R[x_1, \ldots , x_ n] \to S. By Lemma 38.13.7 we find that M is finitely presented as an R[x_1, \ldots , x_ n]-module. We conclude by Algebra, Lemma 10.6.4. \square
