    Answer: $410 million

    Explanation:

    Cash flow from operation = $500

    Interest expense = $40 million

    Net capital expenditures = $150 million

    Net new borrowing = $60 million, Net increase in working capital = $20 million.

    Marginal tax rate = 30%.

    The cash flow from operations includes the Net Earnings adjusted for working capital. Also, the net earnings include the impact of interest expense and the tax expense/shield.

    Therefore, the cash flow to equity will be:

    = Cash Flow from Operations - Capital Expenditure + Net borrowing

    Cash flow to equity will now be:

    = 500 - 150 + 60

    = $410 million
