Respuesta :

Answer:

$22,671

Explanation:

The calculation of the cash flow for the year one is as follows:

Given amount                                    $25,000

Less: Depreciation                            -$18,150

Earning before income and taxes    $6,850

Less: Income tax expense                -$2,329     ($6,850 × 34%)

Earning after taxes                            $4,521

Add: Depreciation expense              $18,150

Annual cash flow                               $22,671

The depreciation expense is computed below:

= $55,000 × 33%

= $18,150
