A project as annual depreciation of $25,500, costs of $101,900, and sales of $150,500. The applicable tax rate is 34 percent. What is the operating cash flow?
Operating cash flow is the amount of cash flows generated through the operating activities of the business.
Operating cash flows = EBIT - Taxes + Depreciation
Earning before interest and tax ( EBIT) = Sales - Variable cost - Depreciation
= 150500 - 101900 - 25500
EBIT =$23,100
Operating cash flows = 23100 - (23100*34%) + 25500
Operating Cash Flow = $40746
Note: Depreciation is a non cash expense and it is added back to Operating cash flow as we take tax benefit on it.
