Answer :
Answer:
a) The 2019 operating cash flow is $56,595
b) The 2019 cash flow to creditors is $12,900
c) The 2019 cash flow to stockholders is $7,243
d) If net fixed assets increased by $23,140 during the year, the addition to Net working capital is $1,212
Explanation:
EBIT = sales - costs - other expenses - depreciation expense
= $178,000 - $103,600 - $5,100 - $12,100 = $57,200
Assuming all above expenses (excepting depreciation expenses) were paid out by cash, then we can solve the followings:
a) What is the 2019 operating cash flow?
Operating cash flow = EBIT+Depreciation - Tax = $57,200 + $12,100 - $12,705 = $56,595
b) What is the 2019 cash flow to creditors?
The cash flow to creditors = interest expense + redeemed in outstanding long-term debt = $8,900 + $4,000 = $12,900
c) What is the 2019 cash flow to stockholders?
The cash flow to stockholders = dividends - new equity issued = $10,143 - $2,900 = $7,243
d) If net fixed assets increased by $23.140 during the year, what was the addition to Net working capital?
Cash flow from assets = Cash flow to creditors + Cash flow to stockholders
= $12,900 +$7,243 = $20,143
Net capital expenses = Depreciation + Increase in fixed assets
= $12,100 + $23.140 = $35,240
Cash flow from assets = Operating cash flow - Change in NWC - Net capital expenses
⇔ $20,143 = $56,595 - Change in NWC - $35,240
-> Change in NWC = $56,595 - $35,240 -$20,143 = $1,212
