Answer:
For 2016 the cash flow from assets is $5600 and the cash flow to stockholders is $300
so correct option is A) $5,600; $300
Explanation:
solution
we find first operating cash flow for 2016 that is
operating cash flow = $718,900 - $562,300 - $42,100 - $20,200
operating cash flow = $94,300
and
Change in net working capital will be here
Change in net working capital = ($9,500 + $59,000 + $128,300 - $58,700) - ($18,200 + $54,200 + $121,600 - $42,600)
Change in net working capital= -$13,300
and
Net capital spending will be here
Net capital spending = $539,700 - $481,400 + $43,700
Net capital spending = $102,000
so Cash flow from assets will be
Cash flow from assets = $94,300-102,000 - (-$13,300)
Cash flow from assets = $5,600
and
now Cash flow to creditors is calculate as
Cash flow to creditor = $11,400- ( $293,500 - 287,400)
Cash flow to creditor = $5,300
and
Addition to retained earning will be
Addition to retained earning = $89,800-65,400
Addition to retained earning = $24,400
so
Net income will be here as
Net income = $718,900 - $562,300 - $42,100 - $43,700 - $11,400 - $20,2000
Net income = $39,200
so that
Dividends is paid here
Dividends paid = $39,200 - $ 24,400
Dividends paid = $14,800
so that Cash flow to stockholders will be
Cash flow to stockholders = $14,800- ( $294,500 - $280,000)
Cash flow to stockholders = $300
and
Cash flow from assets will be = $5,300 + 300
Cash flow from assets = $5,600
