Answer:
$268,500
Explanation:
When you use the indirect method to calculate net cash flows, you start with net income and then adjust it by:
- adding the amount by which accounts receivable decreased = ($17,000 - $10,500) = $6,500
- deducting the amount by which accounts payable increases = ($21,000 - $29,000) = -$8,000
net cash flow from operating activities = $270,000 + $6,500 - $8,000 = $268,500
Those decisions should be based on COSTS AND BENEFITS.
In making decision on which course to follow, the decision made will be based on the costs of the products involved and the benefits that each one of them has to offer. The product with the lowest cost and the highest benefits should be chosen.
