    Net income = $341,770

    Explanation:

    We know,

    Cash flow provided by operating activities = Net income + Changes in working capital + Non cash items.

    Cash flow provided by operating activities = Net income + (-Decrease in income taxes payable + Decrease in inventories + Increase in accounts payable - Increase in prepaid expenses - Increase in accounts receivable) + Depreciation - Gain on sale of investments

    $357,500 = Net income + ( - $7,700 + $19,140 + $5,280 - $2,970 - $14,300) + $29,480 - $13,200

    $357,500 = Net income - $7,700 + $19,140 + $5,280 - $2,970 - $14,300 + $29,480 - $13,200

    $357,500 = Net income + $15,730

    $357,500 - $15,730 = Net income

    Net income = $341,770
