Explanation / Answer
Net New Borrowing = Ending Long-term Debt - Beginning Long-term Debt
Net New Borrowing = $1,550,000 - $1,385,000
Net New Borrowing = $165,000
Cash Flow to Creditors = Interest Expense - Net New Borrowing
Cash Flow to Creditors = $92,500 - $165,000
Cash Flow to Creditors = -$72,500
Net New Equity Raised = Ending Common Stock + Ending Additional Paid-in Capital - Beginning Common Stock - Beginning Additional Paid-in Capital
Net New Equity Raised = $147,000 + $2,920,000 - $137,000 - $2,620,000
Net New Equity Raised = $310,000
Cash Flow to Stockholders = Dividend - Net New Equity Raised
Cash Flow to Stockholders = $142,000 - $310,000
Cash Flow to Stockholders = -$168,000
Cash Flow from Assets = Cash Flow to Creditors + Cash Flow to Stockholders
Cash Flow from Assets = -$72,500 - $168,000
Cash Flow from Assets = -$240,500
Cash Flow from Assets = Operating Cash Flow - Net Capital Spending - Additions to NWC
-$240,500 = Operating Cash Flow - $930,000 - (-$122,000)
Operating Cash Flow = $567,500
