Consumer advocates, government agencies, and other critics have accused marketing of harming consumers through planned obsolescence.

Planned obsolescence is a business strategy in which a product's obsolescence—the process of becoming out-of-date or unusable—is anticipated and built into it from the manufacturer's perspective.

Although the phrase "planned obsolescence" didn't become widely used until the 1950s, consumerist society had already adopted the tactic by then. Planned obsolescence still persists today in many different ways, from subtle to overt.

Net profit after tax = $335,774 - $126,923 = $208,851

Add: Depreciation since non cash in nature = $77,434 + $208,851 = $286,285 = Net Operating Cash Flow
