Particulars Amount ($)
Net income for the year 2020 260,100
Adjustments to reconcile net income:  
+Depreciation on plant assets 67,800
+Loss on disposal of plant assets 11,100
Net cash Provided by operating activities : 339,000

Notes:

  • Depreciation is a non cash activity hence it should be added back to the net income.
  • Loss on sale of plant asset is shown in the income statement and thereby reducing the Net income it does not have any impact on cash flow therefore should be added back to net income. However proceeds from sale of plant asset will be shown in investing activity.
