Answer: $1,311,000

Explanation:

Operating Cashflow = Cashflow from Assets + Capital spending + changes in Net working capital

Cashflow from Assets = Cashflow to Creditors + Cashflow to Stakeholders

Cashflow to Creditors = Interest paid - Change in long term debt

=  140,000 - (2,950,000 - 2,700,000)

=  -$110,000

Cashflow to Stakeholders

= Dividends paid - New equity issue

= 500,000 - ((500,000 + 3,500,000) - (460,000 + 3,200,000))

= $160,000

Cashflow from Assets = -110,000 + 160,000

= $50,000

Operating cashflow = 50,000 + 1,320,000 + (-59,000)

= $1,311,000
