Burke's Corner currently sells blue jeans and T$-$shirts. Management is considering adding fleece tops to its inventory to provide a cooler weather option. The tops would sell for $$53$ each with expected sales of $4,300$ tops annually. By adding the fleece tops, management feels the firm will sell an additional $285$ pairs of jeans at $$65$ a pair and $420$ fewer T$-$shirts at $$26$ each. The variable cost per unit is $$36$ on the jeans, $$16$ on the T$-$shirts, and $$31$ on the fleece tops. With the new item, the depreciation expense is $$33,000$ a year and the fixed costs are $$76,000$ annually. The tax rate is $35$ percent. What is the project's operating cash flow?
