    The operating cash flow would be $ 13500

    Explanation:

    Given,

    Sales = $ 38,000,

    Expenses = $ 15,500,

    Additional depreciation expenses = $2,600,

    So, earning before tax = Sales - total expenses = 38000 - (15500 + 2600)

    = 38000 - 18100

    = $ 19900,

    Now, implemented taxes = $3,000,

    Thus, earning after tax = 19900 - 3000 = $ 16900,

    Depreciation = $ 3,400

    Thus, the operating cash flow = 16900 - 3400 = $ 13,500
