Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Cash flow to creditors = $25,000

Cash flow to stock holders = $80,000

Cash flow from assets = cash flow to creditors + cash flow to stockholders

Cash flow from assets = $25,000+$80,000= $1,05,000

Net capital spending =$14,90,000

Changes in net working capital = -$93,000

Cash flow from assets= Operating cash flow - changes in net working capital - net capital spending

$1,05,000= operating cash flow - (-93000)-14,90,000

Operating cash flow = 1,05,000+14,90,000-93,000=$15,02,000

Firm's operating cash flow (OCF) = $15,02,000
