Answer 1

Cash flow :

For Case A = $27,450

Case B = $14,000

Case C = $25,000

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Case A Case B Case C

Cash collected from customers $712,000 $555,000 $97,500

Cash payment to suppliers -$40,000 -$25,500 -$65,200

Cash payment for operating expense -$3,750 -$16,000 -$7,300

Net cash provided by operating activities $27,450 $14,000 $25,000

Where,

Cash received from customers = Net sales + dec. in account receivable - inc. in accounts receivable

Cash paid to suppliers = COG sold + inc. in inventory + dec. in accounts payable - dec. in inventory - inc. in accounts payable

Cash paid for operating expense = operating expense - Depreciation + inc. in prepaid expense + dec. in accrued expenses payable - inc. in accounts payable - inc. in accrued expenses payable
