d) $515,000

Explanation:

Given:

Accounts Receivable Beginning Balance = $131,000

Accounts Receivable Ending Balance = $114,000

Decrease in Accounts Receivables = $17,000

We take the difference between beginning and ending Balance of Accounts Receivables. If there is a decrease in Accounts Receivables we add that amount in Income reported on Income Statement for that year. So,

$498,000 + $17,000

= $515,000

Hence, the Cash Flow from Operating Activities would be $515,000, exclusive of the other adjustments.
