Answer #1

Sales for year 4 = $30,000

Variable costs for year 4 = $30,000 *65% = $19,500

Fixed costs = $14,000

Depreciation = Cost of fixed assets*MACRS rate for year 4 = $70,000 * 11.52% = $8,064

Operating income before taxes = Sales – Variable costs – Fixed costs – Depreciation

Operating income before taxes = $30,000 - $19,500 - $14,000 - $8,064 = -$11,564

Tax savings on operating income = $11,564 * 36% = $4,163.04

Operating income after tax savings = -$11,564+$4,163.04 = -$7,400.96

Operating cash flow = Operating income after tax savings + Depreciation

Operating cash flow for yea r4 = -$7,400.96+$8,064 = $663.04

This amount can be entered in financial calculator using CFj against year 4 cash flow as positive value.
