What is the annual operating cash flow?

Answer 1

Operating cash flow= $29,886

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= $262,100

Total variable cost= $144,000

Total fixed costs= $61,300.

Annual interest expense of $24,500. The annual depreciation is $25,200 and the tax rate is 34 percent.

We need to determine the operating cash flow:

Sales= 262,100

Total variable cost= (144,000)

Contribution margin= 118,100

Total fixed costs= (61,300)

Depreciation= (25,200)

Interest= (24,500)

EBIT= 7,100

Tax= (7,100*0.34)= (2,414)

Depreciation= 25,200

Operating cash flow= 29,886
