Explanation / Answer

Answer )

Pre-tax profit = 160,000 - (30,000 + 50,000) -10,000 = 70,000

Net Income = 70,000 * (1-0.35) = 45500

OCF Calculation

1) Bottom up approach

OCF = NI + Depeciation = 45500 + 10000 = 55500

2) Top Down approach

OCF = Sales - cost -taxes

= 160000-(3,000+5000)-24,500 = 55500

3) Tax Shield approach

OCF = (Sales -cost )*(1-tax ) + Depreciation x tax

=(160000 - 30000-50000)*(1-0.35) + 10,000 x 0.35 = 55500
