Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Cash Flows to Creditors = -$10,000
Cash Flows to Stockholder = $70,000

Cash Flows from Assets = Cash Flows to Creditors + Cash Flows to Stockholder
Cash Flows from Assets = -$10,000 + $70,000
Cash Flows from Assets = $60,000

Change in Net Working Capital = -$79,000
Net Capital Spending = $1,420,000

Cash Flows from Assets = Operating Cash Flow - Change in Net Working Capital - Net Capital Spending
$60,000 = Operating Cash Flow - (-$79,000) - $1,420,000
Operating Cash Flow = $1,401,000
