After having a wildly successful launch in $2020$ of its dog$-$like enterprise robot $(\text{'}$Spot$\text{'}),$ Boston

Dynamics is considering launching a miniature plastic toy replica of the robot in order to capitalize on its success. You are assisting the company build the financial projections for this

Toy Spot project.

You forecast that if Boston Dynamics accepts the project that the following events will happen in

$2025,$ which is the fourth year of the project:

You estimate that the firm would sell $12,795$ of the toys to customers in the year $2025$ at a price of $ $11\mathrm{.}25$ each. Of those sales, you forecast that $53\mathrm{.}0\%$ of the sales will be sold for cash and the remainder sold on credit.

Your analysis shows that the firm will produce an estimated $11,500$ units of the product in the year $2025$ at a cost of $$8\mathrm{.}25$ per toy. The firm will pay its suppliers

$49\mathrm{.}0\%$ of these costs in cash in $2025.$ The remainder of the costs will be purchased from the suppliers on credit for payment in some later period. The firm would pay $

$75,770$ to its bank in $2025$ on the money that it borrowed to cover the annual incremental costs of the project.

You estimate that Boston Dynamics will receive payments of $ $160,205$ in $2025$

from customers that had purchased the Spot Toy on credit in prior years of the project. Similarly, the firm will make payments in $2025$ of $$79,690$ to its suppliers

for the manufacturing costs of the toy that it had made on credit.

Assume that the firm will pay tax at a marginal rate of $25\mathrm{.}0\%$ in $2025.$

Assume that these were the only financial events relating to the Toy Spot project during the $2025$ fiscal year.

Finish attempt

Assume that you have forecast that there will be no incremental capital expenditure or incremental salvage events during $2025($or any other year of the Toy Spot project$).$ This is because Boston Dynamics will rent all of the the factory and

machinery required to make the toys at a cost of $$8700$ if it decides to accept the project.

A$)$ Given all of the relevant figures that you have estimated above as part of the assistance you are providing to Boston Dynamics, you estimate that the incremental

free cash flow will be $

in $2025$ for the firm if they accept the Toy

Spot project.

$($Round your answer to the nearest dollar. Include a negative sign if the cash flow is
