Answer:

The flood shifts the supply to the left.

The increase in healthcare costs shifts the supply curve to the left.

Explanation:

An increase in the cost of production inputs (increase in health costs) or a decrease in the availability of resources (the flood reduced the firm's production capability), will shift the supply curve to the left.

A leftward shift of the supply curve will lower the quantity supplied and will increase the price of the good at every level of demand.

                                                                  $

Net income                                              49,000

Add deprecation                                      17,200

Less increase in receivable                    (11.200)

add increase in payables                         <u>13,300</u>

Net operating cash flow                          <u> 68,300</u>
