The earning of the corporation is: $704,000

The addition to the cash flow includes:

+) Depreciation expense: $318,000

The subtractions to the cash flow includes:

+) Selling and administrative expense: $252,000

+) Paying tax: Tax = 40% x Gross profit = 40% x 704,000 = $281,600

=> The total cash flow is: 704,000 + 318,000 - 252,000 - 281,600 = $488,400
