2018 Financial Statement (US dollars, millions)

A.25 B.45 C.75解释：
B is correct. All dollar amounts are in millions. Net income (NI) for 2018 is USD35. This amount is the increase in retained earnings, USD25, plus the dividends paid, USD10. Depreciation of USD25 is added back to net income, and the increases in accounts receivable, USD5, and in inventory, USD3, are subtracted from net income because they are uses of cash. The decrease in accounts payable is also a use of cash and, therefore, a subtraction from net income. Thus, cash flow from operations is USD25 + USD10 + USD25 – USD5 – USD3 – USD7 = USD45.
