Based on this information, what was Bramble free cash flow

Answer 1

Bramble free cash flow was $508,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Cash provided by operations = $778,000

Cash used in investing = $672,000

Cash used in financing = $186,000

Cash spent on fixed assets during the period = $270,000

Average current liabilities = $637,000

Average total liabilities = $1,682,000

Free cash flow = Cash flow from operating activities - Capital expenditures

= $778,000 - $270,000

= $508,000
