Respuesta :

The average annual operating income from assets is $20,000.

What is operating income?

Earnings before interest and taxes is a measure of a company's profit that includes all income and costs (operating and non-operating) excluding interest and income tax charges. When a company does not have non-operating income or non-operating costs, operating income and operating profit are frequently used as synonyms for EBIT.

Equipment cost = $240,000

Cash inflow =  $60,000

Total net cash inflows during the operating life of the equipment

= Cash inflow per year × no. of years

= $60,000 × 6

=$3,60,000

Total operating income during an operating life = Total net cash inflows during the operating life - Total depreciation during the operating life

= $360,000 - $240,000

= $120,000

Therefore,

Average annual operating income = [tex]\frac{Total operating income during an operating life}{Equipment operating life year}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{120000}{6}[/tex]

Average annual operating income  = $20,000
