    a. Cash Flow Rogers = $441,000

    Cash Flow Evans = $327,520

    b. $113,480

    Explanation:

    The computation of the cash flow for both companies are shown below:

    a. For Cash Flow Rogers

    = Gross profit - Selling and administrative expense - income tax expense + depreciation expense * tax rate

    where,

    Income tax expense = (Gross profit - Selling and administrative expense) * income tax rate

    = ($704,000 - $191,000) * 40%

    = $205,200

    And, the other items values would remain the same

    Now put these values to the above formula

    So, the value would equal to

    = $704,000 - $191,000 - $205,200 + $333,000 * 40%

    = $307,800 + $133,200

    = $441,000

    For Cash Flow Evans

    = Gross profit - Selling and administrative expense - income tax expense + depreciation expense * tax rate

    where,

    Income tax expense = (Gross profit - Selling and administrative expense) * income tax rate

    = ($704,000 - $191,000) * 40%

    = $205,200

    And, the other items values would remain the same

    Now put these values to the above formula

    So, the value would equal to

    = $704,000 - $191,000 - $205,200 + $49,300 * 40%

    = $307,800 + $19,720

    = $327,520

    b. The computation of the difference in cash flow between the two firms are shown below:

    = Cash Flow Rogers - Cash Flow Evans

    = $441,000 - $327,520

    = $113,480
