Answer: $510,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Earnings before depreciation and taxes = $630,000

Depreciation = $330,000

Tax bracket = 40%

Earnings before taxes = Earnings before depreciation and taxes - Depreciation

= $630,000 - $330,000

= $300,000

Therefore, taxes = 40% of $300,000

= $120,000

Earnings after taxes = Earnings before taxes - taxes

= $300,000 - $120,000

= $180,000

Cash flow = Earnings after taxes + Depreciation

= $180,000 + $330,000

= $510,000
