Respuesta :

Answer:

Cash flow from assets = $51,800

Explanation:

Cash flow from assets = Cash flow to Creditors + Cash flow to Shareholders

Cash flow to creditors = Interest Paid – (New loans taken – Paid Loans)

                                     = $28,311 - ($0 - $21,000)

                                     = $28,311 + $21,000

                                      = $49,311

Cash flow to shareholders = Dividends paid – Net new equity

                                            = $27,500 – $25,000

                                            = $2,500

Cash flow from assets = $49,311 + $2,500 = $51,811
