A proposed new project has projected sales of $202,300, costs of $102,340, and depreciation of $7,140. The tax rate is 32 percent. Calculate operating cash flow using the four different approaches. Requirement 1: The common calculation Approach (Do not round your intermediate calculations): Requirement 2: The Bottom-Up Approach (Do not round your intermediate calculations): Requirement 3: The Top-Down Approach (Do not round your intermediate calculations): Requirement 4: The Tax-Shield Approach (Do not round your intermediate calculations):
Sales = $202300
Cost = $102340
Depriciation = $7140
Earning before tax = (sales - costs - depriciation) = $92820
Taxes = 32% of $92820 = $29702.4
Net Income = (EBT - Taxes) = $63117.6
1. Common Calculation Approach = EBT + Depriciation - Taxes
= $63117.6 + $7140 = $70257.6
2. Bottom Up Approach = Net Income + Depriciation = $63117.6 + $7140 = $70257.6
3. Top Down Approach = Sales - Cost - taxes = $70277.6
4. tax Shield Approach = (sales - Cost) * (1 - tax rate) + depriciation * taxrate = $70277.6
