Question

The Outpost, a sole proprietorship currently sells short leather jackets for $369 each. The firm is considering selling long coats also. The long coats would sell for $719 each and the company expects to sell 820 a year. If the company decides to carry the long coat, management feels that the annual sales of the short jacket will decline from 1,120 to 1,040 units. Variable costs on the jacket are $228 and $435 on the long coat. The fixed costs for this project are $23,100, depreciation is $10,400 a year, and the tax rate is 34 percent. What is the projected operating cash flow for this project

Answer 1

Answer:

$134,546

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the projected operating cash flow for this project

Projected operating cash flow=

{[820 × ($719 − 435)] + [(1,040 − 1,120) × ($369 − 228)] − $23,100} × {1 − .34} + {$10,400 × .34}

Projected operating cash flow={[820 × $284)] + [$80 × $141] − $23,100} × {.66} + {$3,436}

Projected operating cash flow= $134,546

Therefore the projected operating cash flow for this project is $134,546
