Answer in this case will be 39 months

Explanation:

In given data estimated negative cash flow from operation is (155,000), this is assumed that there will not be any cash flow from investing or financing activities.

data given for accounts receivable and inventory is irrelevant since both are part of operating cash flow which is already estimated.

there for closing balance at the end of year is $ 500000 divided by negative cash flow of (150,000) equals to months company will able to continue without positive cash flow or additional financing.
