Answer 1

Answer:

$15,266

Explanation:

Sales                                                          $46,382

Less: Cost of goods sold                          $16,659

Gross profit                                                $29,723

Less: Selling & administrative expense   $11,766

Less: Depreciation                                     $6,415

Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT)    $11,542

Less: Interest expenses                             $3,854

Earnings before tax (EBT)                           $7,688

Less: Tax expenses  (7688*35%)               $2,691

Earnings after tax                                       $4,997

Operating cash flow = EBIT + Depreciation expenses - Tax expenses

Operating cash flow = $11,542 + $6,415 - $2,691

Operating cash flow = $15,266
