Answer:
Option (C) is correct.
Explanation:
EBIT = Sales revenues - Depreciation - Other operating costs
= $39,500 - $10,000 - $17,000
= $12,500
EBT/PBT = EBIT - Interest expense
= $12,500 - $4,000
= $8,500
PAT = EBT - Tax rate
= $8,500 - 35% of $8,500
= $8,500 - $2,975
= $5,525
CFAT = PAT + Depreciation
= $5,525 + $10,000
= $15,525
Therefore, the Year 1 cash flow is $15,525.
