4.71 percent increase

Explanation:

The increase in the number of units sold is 3.8%

Degree of operating leverage is 1.24

Therefore, the operating cash flow can be calculated as follows:

Increase in the number of units*degree of operating leverage

= 3.8/100*1.24

= 0.038*1.24

= 0.0471*100

= 4.71%

Hence there is a 4.71 percent increase in the operating cash flow
