Answer 1

1) Cash Paid to Acquire Inventory(Purchased made during the year)

Opening Inventory + Purchase = Sales + Closing Inventory

84,900 + Purchase = 283,700 + 77,100

Purchase = 360,800 - 84,900

= 275,900 $

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Cash Flow from Revenue (Net Receipts)	449,100
Less: Cash Payments for Expenses	273,700
Income Before Income Taxes	175,400
Less : Cash Payment for Income Taxes	15,500
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	159,900

Net Receipts = Sales + Accounts Receivable (Beginning) - Accounts Receivable (Ending)

Net Receipts = 440,700 + 45,200 - 36,800 = 449,100

Net Payments = Purchase + Inventory (ending) + Accounts Payable (Beginning) - Inventory (Beginning) - Accounts Payable (Ending)

Net Payments = 275,900 + 77,100 + 19,000 - 84,900 - 13,400 = 273,700
