This question requires us to calculate cash flows from operations and net income. Each of them is calculated as follow.

Cash flows from operations

Cash flow from operation comprises of cash generated or spend on core business related purchase and sale. It will be calculated as follow.

Cash from operations = 25,000 - 100,000 = ($ 75,000).

Net income

Net income will be calculated using simple cashflow equation given below.

Closing cash balance = opening cashflow + net income + depreciation + cash flow from operations + cash flow investment + cash flow finance

25,000 = 55,000 + net income + 10,000 - 75,000 - 250,000 + 170,000

Net income = 115,000
