Zinaida [17]

Answer:

New England's cash balance at the end of the year is $208,000

Explanation:

The computation of the ending cash balance is shown below:

Ending cash balance = Net cash provided by operating activities + net cash used by investing activities + cash provided by financing activities + beginning cash balance

= $351,000 - $420,000 + $250,000 + $27,000

= $208,000
