Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the operating cash flow using the four different approaches is shown below:
1. EBIT + depreciation - taxes approach
But before that the net income would be
Sales $219,000
Less cost -$96,000
Less depreciation -$26,000
EBT $97,000
Less tax at 23% -$22,310
Net income $74,690
Now the operating cash flow is
= EBIT + depreciation - taxes
= $97,000 $26,000 - $22,310
= $100,690
2. top down approach
= Sales - cost - taxes
= $219,000 - $96,000 - $22,310
= $100,690
3. Tax shield approach
= (Sales - cost) × (1 - tax rate) + tax rate × depreciation expense
= ($219,000 - $96,000) × 0.23 + 0.23 × $26,000
= $94,710 + $5,980
= $100,690
4. Bottom up approach
= Net income + depreciation
= $74,690 + $26,000
= $100,690
