b. what is its operating cash flow?

Answer 1

To calculate: 
1) Net income (loss) for 2010.
 2) Operating cash flow 
 Solution: 1)
 Sales = $850000
 Less: Cost of goods sold = $610000
  Gross profit = $240000
 Less: Administrative and selling expenses = $110000 
 Earning before Interest, Tax and Depreciation = $130000
 Less: Depreciation = $140000
  Earning before Interest and Tax (EBIT) = ($10000)
 Less: Interest expense = $85000
  Earning before tax (EBT) = ($95000)
 Less: Tax = $0 (as company is having negative EBT or loss hence no tax)

 
 Net loss = $95000  
 2) Operating cash flow 
 EBIT + Depreciation - Tax 
 Wherein, EBIT = Earning before Interest and Tax
  ($10000) + 140000 - 0 = $130000
