    E. $63,401

    Explanation:

    gain on disposal = salvage value of plant - book value on date of sale

    = $5,790 - $4,820

    = $970

    tax on disposal = $970*35%

    = $339.50

    after tax salvage value = $5,790 - $339.50

    = $5,450.50

    total cash flow in 4 years

    = annual operating cash flow + net working capital + after tax salvage value

    = $53,500 + $4,450 + $5,450.50

    = $63,401

    Therefore, The Year 4 cash flow is $63,401.
