    The firm's operating cash flow is $291000

    Explanation:

    Operating cash flow is arrived by using the format below:

    Net income after tax

    Add back dereciation and amortization

    Add and (deduct) Reduction in working capital (Increase in working capital)

    Add back interest expense on loans

    Add back tax expense for the year

    Then deduct:

    Actual interest paid

    Actual tax paid

    Using the proforma above, Kerber's Tennis Shop Inc. is shown as:

    Net income after tax+Interest expense (add) + reduction in net working capital (add) - increase in creditors' payment (minus)

    As a result, operating cash flow=$220000+$91000-$20000

    =$291000
