Answer 1

a) cash collected from customers : beginning receivables + credit sales 2014 -ending receivables-writeoffs

      = 29640+542749-32710-4620

      = 535059

b)Inventory purchased :Ending inventory +cost of goods sold -beginning inventory

          = 31330+252660-46580

        = 237410

Cash paid to suppliers = beginningpayables +inventory purchased 2014 -ending accounts payables

       = 17070+237410-25390

       = 229090

c)Cash paid for interest :Interest expense -discount amortised

           = 4120 - [5390-4050]

            =4120-1340

             = 2780

d)Cash paid for income taxes. =Income tax expense +decrease in income taxes payable- increase in deferred tax

      = 20010+ [29380-21090]-[5570-4000]

     = 20010+ 8290-1570

     = 26730

e)Cash paid for selling expenses.:selling expense- depreciation-bad debt expense

           = 141890-1147-5100

              = 15643

**depreciation to selling :[16971-13530]*1/3=1147
