What was the firm's 2016 operating cash flow, or OCF? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)

Answer: $589,500

Explanation:

The cash flow to the creditors in 2016 will be calculated as:

= $94,500 – ($1,590,000 - $1,405,000)

= $94,500 – $1,590,000 + $1,405,000

= -$90,500

For the shareholders, the cash flow in 2016 will be:

= $146,000 – [($151,000 + $2,960,000) – ($141,000 + $2,660,000)]

= -$164,000

Capital spending = $970,000

Cash flow due to the net working capital investment = -$126,000

OCF

= -$90,500 + (-$164,000) + $970,000 + (-$126,000)

= $589,500

Read the following scenario and answer the question in 5 sentences at least.
You are the president of the American Association of Construction Manufacturers (AACM), a trade association that represents seven hundred companies who build and sell heavy construction equipment. Members have proposed a number of initiatives to advance AACM interests. First, some members want an AACM advocacy group to lobby Congress for relaxing trade barriers on importing raw materials and parts. Second, some of the smaller AACM members want an advertising campaign promoting the importance of the AACM in order to increase small firm membership. Third, some members propose to segregate regions of the United States into sales territories, whereby only certain members have access to certain customers within a geographic area. Fourth, a group of socially conscious AACM firms want its members to boycott a large supplier that sources from nations with poor human rights records. Evaluate the business and legal (antitrust) implications of each of these proposals.

In the past 20 years the United States has entered into several "free trade agreements." The commonality of these free trade agreement has been making it easier for foreign companies to sell their goods in the United States (imports) and for American companies to sell their goods overseas (exports). In your initial post, summarize the key points of specific trade agreement the United States has entered into in the last 25 years. Be sure to include the other counties involved and what kinds of trade restrictions and/or tariffs were changed as a result of that agreement. Include citations at the end of your post (should be easy to find info on trade agreements on the web). In your response posts please discuss how you think these trade agreements have impacted the United States. Be sure to include in your response something about which Americans benefit form the agreement, which Americans are hurt by the agreement, and the impact the agreement has had on GDP.
