    Answer: Option (d) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Net Income = $252,327

    Depreciation expense = $21,821

    Accounts Receivable increased by = $14,346

    Inventory increased by = $33,617

    Prepaid Expenses decreased by = $3,079

    Accounts Payable decreased by = $4,161

    Loss on the sale of equipment = $5,398

    Operating Income = Net Income + Depreciation expense - Accounts Receivable - Inventory + Prepaid Expenses - Accounts Payable + Loss on the sale of equipment

    = $252,327 + $21,821 - $14,346 - $33,617 + $3,079 - $4,161 + $5,398

    = $230,501
