Ironwood Company's net income is $399,000. During the year accounts receivable increased $196,000 and accounts payable decreased $56,000. Using the indirect method of preparing the statement of cash flows, what amount will be reported as cash provided by operating activities?

net income is $399,000-(accounts receivable increased $196,000)-(accounts payable decreased $56,000)
399000-196000-56000=147000

For  cash flow calculation keep below in mind

Asset-when asset decreases u need to add back to net income-When Asset increase reduce from net income
liability-When decrease reduce from net income-when increased add to net income

So in this que
3,99000-196000-56000=147000

I hope this help

Format for Indirect method Cashflow. (operating)

Net Income  
Add : 
No Cash items (Depreciation, Amortization, Provisions)

Adjust:
Non Operating Gains and Losses(Finance or Investing)

Add:
Changes in Working Capital.

Cashflow from Operations.


Increase in Accounts receivables means Compared to last year we have more credit sales, so less cash inflow. So the net income 399000/- we were suppose to realize in cash but received only (399000-196000) = 203000/-

Decrease in Accounts payable means compared to last year we have less credit purchase, So more cash outflow. So out of the  net cash we received (203000/-) we will pay 56000/- . So net Cash is 147000/-
