Respuesta :

Answer:

$14,439.8

Explanation:

The computation of operating cash flow is shown below:-

The operating cash flow is shown below:

= EBIT + Depreciation - Income tax expense

where,

EBIT = Sales - cost of good sold - depreciation expense -  selling and administrative expense

= $44,432 - $14,909 - $4,965 - $10,816

= $13,742

Tax expenses =  ( Earnings before interest and tax - interest expenses ) × tax rate of 40%

= ($13,742 - $3,074) × 40%

= $10,668 × 40%

= $4,267.2

So, the operating cash flow

= $13,742 + $4,965 - $4,267.2

= $14,439.8
