agasfer [191]

Answer:

Annual estimated net income is $360,00.

Annual estimated net cash inflow is $216,000.

Explanation:

1. Determine the annual estimated net income

Annual estimated net income = Annual cash inflows - Annual cash outflow

Annual estimated net income = $600,000 - $240,000 = $360,00

2. Determine the annual estimated net cash inflow

Annual Tax = Annual estimated net income × Tax rate

Annual Tax = $360,00 × 40% = $144,000.  

Annual estimated net cash inflow = Annual estimated net income - Annual Tax

Annual estimated net cash inflow = $360,00 - $144,000 = $216,000.

Note that depreciation is not considered in the calculation because depreciation not a cash expense.
