Answer 1

None of the above.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Net Income = $60,000

Depreciation = $4,000

Increase in Accounts Receivable = $2,000

Increase in Deferred Tax Liability = $1,000

Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities:

= Net Income + Depreciation - Increase in Accounts Receivable + Increase in Deferred Tax Liability

= $60,000 + $4,000 - $2,000 + $1,000

= $63,000
