Taxable Income will be = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold - Selling
and General Expenses - Depreciation - Interest
= $21,381 - $9,784 - $1,208 - $811 - $248
=$9,330
Taxes = Taxable Income * 34%
= $9,330 * 34%
= $3,172.20
Net Income = Taxable Income – Taxes
= $9,330 - $3,172.20
= $6,157.80
Addition to Retained Earnings = Net Income - Dividends
$325 = $6,157.80 - Dividends
Dividends = $5,832.80
Net New Equity = Issuance of Shares - Shares Repurchased
= $500 - $125
= $375
Cash Flows to Stockholders = Dividends - Net New Equity
Cash Flows to Stockholders = $5,832.80 - $375
Cash Flows to Stockholders = $5,457.80
