Kingbird's free cash flow is $590,000

Explanation:

Given:

Cash from operations = $905,000

Cash spent on fixed assets = $315,000

Cash used in investing activities = ($782,000)

Cash used in financing activities = ($217,000)

Free cash flow = Cash from operations - capital expenditures

Capital expenditures are expenditure incurred on acquiring long term assets. Cash spent on fixed assets is capital expenditure.

Substitute the values in the above formula:

Free cash flow = 905,000 - 315,000

= $590,000
