Answer: D. Income was lower by $1000 because of Depreciation expense

Explanation:

When preparing the Cashflow Statement using the Indirect method, Depreciation is added to the Net Income in the Operating Section.

This is because Depreciation is a non-cash expense that was removed from the revenue to calculate income. Now that the company wants to know how much actual cash it has, it will have to add back Depreciation because depreciation is not a cash expense so does not actually reduce the money the company has.
