Answer:

Net cash provided by operating activities was $127,800.

Explanation:

Net cash provided by operating activities can be calculated as follows:

Net cash provided by operating activities = Net income for the year + Increase in accounts payable + Decrease in accounts receivable - Increase in inventories increased + Depreciation expense = $58,000 + $18,600 + $25,600 - $6,200 + $31,800 = $127,800

Therefore, net cash provided by operating activities was $127,800.
