Answer: $6,834

Explanation:

Given the following;

Cash flow to creditors = $30,026

Operating Cashflow = $67,603

Net capital spending = $28,760

Beginning net working capital = $11,917

Ending working capital = $13,900

Therefore,

Net working capital = Ending working capital - beginning working capital

Net working capital = $ (13,900 - 11,917) = $1,983

Cashflow from asset = (operating Cashflow - Net capital spending - net working capital)

Cashflow from asset = $67,603 - $28,760 - $1,983 = $36,860

Therefore,

Company's Cashflow to stockholders during the year = (Cashflow from asset - Cashflow to creditors)

$36,860 - $30,026 = $6,834
