A company is considering a new 6-year project that will have annual sales of $207,000 and costs of $128,000. The project will require fixed assets of $247,000, which will be depreciated on a 5-year MACRS schedule. The annual depreciation percentages are 20.00 percent, 32.00 percent, 19.20 percent, 11.52 percent, 11.52 percent, and 5.76 percent, respectively. The company has a tax rate of 34 percent. What is the operating cash flow for Year 2?
Given,
Annual sales = $207000
Costs = $128000
Fixed asset = $247000
Depreciation rate for year 2 = 32.00%
Tax rate = 34% or 0.34
Solution :-
Depreciation for year 2 = Fixed asset x depreciation rate for year 2
= $247000 x 32.00% = $79040
Operating cash flow for year 2
= (Annual sales - cost - depreciation for year 2) x (1 - tax rate) + depreciation for year 2
= ($207000 - $128000 - $79040) x (1 - 0.34) + $79040
= (-$40) x (0.66) + $79040
= -$26.40 + $79040 = $79013.60
