Moody · Answer 1

Cash flow from operating activities is $4,600,000

Explanation:

Given:

Net income for the year = $3,000,000

Depreciation = $1,500,000

Gain from cash sales = $200,000

Increase in accounts payable = $300,000

Dividend paid = $400,000

Cash flow from operating activities = Net income + depreciation - gain on sale of land + increase in current liabilities

= 3,000,000 - 200,000 + 1,500,000 + 300,000

=$4,600,000

Dividends on preferred stock is considered in financing activities.

Therefore, cash flow from operating activities is $4,600,000.
