Answer:

$109,085

Explanation:

From the question above RTF oil has a total sales of $911,500

The costs incurred by RTF oil is $787,300

Depreciation is $52,600

The tax rate is 21 percent

= 21/100

= 0.21

The first step is to calculate the EBIT

EBIT= Total sales-costs-depreciation

EBIT= $911,400-$787,300-$52,600

EBIT = $71,500

The next step is to calculate the tax

Tax= EBIT× tax rate

= $71,500×0.21

= $15,015

Therefore since we have gotten the tax and EBIT, the final stage is to calculate the operating cash flow

OCF= EBIT + depreciation- Tax

= $71,500+$52,600-$15,015

= $124,100-$15,015

= $109,085

Hence RTF oil has an operating cash flow of $109,085
