Answer: $263,660

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $3,210,000

Cost of goods sold = $2,540,000

Administrative and selling expenses = $389,000

Depreciation expenses = $112,000

Interest expense = $118,000

Tax rate = 34 percent

EBIT = Sales - Cost of goods sold - administrative and selling expenses - Depreciation

= $3,210,000 - $2,540,000 - $389,000 - $112,000

= $169,000

EBT = EBIT - Interest

= $169,000 - $118,000

= $51,000

Net Income = EBT - 34% Income tax

= $51,000 - 34% * $51,000

= $51,000 - $17,340

= $33,660

Operating cash flow = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Administrating expense - 34% Income tax

= $3,210,000 - $2,540,000 - $389,000 - $17,340

= $263,660
