2. Macgregor Company completed its first year of operations on December 31, 2017. Its initial income statement showed that Macgregor had revenues of $197,800 and operating expenses of $85,700. Accounts receivable and accounts payable at year-end were $67,900 and $22,300, respectively. Assume that accounts payable related to operating expenses. Ignore income taxes.

Compute net cash provided by operating activities using the direct method.

Cash receipts from customers

$

Explanation / Answer

1)

Cash receipts from customers

= Opening balance + Sales revenue - Closing balance

= $206,024,000 + $1,095,307,000 - $267,653,000

= $ 1,033,678,000

2)

Cash provided by operating activities

= Cash receipts from customers - Cash paid to suppliers

Cash receipts

= Revenue - Accounts receivable

= $ 197,800 - $ 67,900

= $ 129,900

Cash paid to suppliers

= Operating expenses - Accounts payable

= $ 85,700 - $ 22,300

= $ 63,400

So, Cash provided by operating activities

= $ 129,900 - $ 63,400

= $ 66,500.
