Answer: Company's net capital spending for 2016 = $702,000
Explanation:
Given that,
On December 31, 2015:
Net fixed assets = $1,780,000
On December 31, 2016:
Net fixed assets = $2,150,000
Depreciation expense = $332,000
Therefore,
Company's net capital spending for 2016:
= Ending net assets + Depreciation expense - Beginning net assets
= $2,150,000 + $332,000 - $1,780,000
= $702,000
