Compute the change in net working capital:
Hence, the change in net working capital is $450.
Compute the net capital spending:
Net capital spending | |
Particulars | Amount |
Ending net fixed assets | $17,120 |
Less: Beginning net fixed assets | $15,470 |
$1,650 | |
Add: Depreciation | $2,900 |
Net capital spending | $4,550 |
Hence, the net capital spending is $4,550.
Compute the cash flow from assets:
The operating cash flow is $ $4,916. (Refer to Part (b) for the solution). The change in net working capital is −$450, the net capital spending is $4,550.
Hence, the cash flow from assets are −$84.
Determine whether the company can have negative cash flow from assets:
The cash flow from assets can be negative. A negative cash flow from assets means that the company borrowed funds to invest in fixed assets. In the given situation, the operating cash flow is positive. However, the cash flow from assets is negative because the company raised additional capital to invest in fixed assets.
