    The Net cash is 364.400

    Explanation:

    To get net cash flow using the indirect method we must make adjustments to the net income.

    It depends on the account if it is added or subtracted to net income. Below you will find the added account with a plus (+) and the subtracted ones with a minus (-)

    In this case,

    Net income 238.000

    Adjustment to reconcile the net income to cash

    plus (+) Depreciation expense 91.200

    minus (-) Gain on sale of equipment (5.400)

    plus (+) decrease in accounts receivable 37.100

    plus (+) Accounts payable increase 16.550

    minus (-) Wages payable decrease (13.050)

    Net cash 364.400
