Answer 1

Answer:

$9.7 million

Explanation:

Calculation to determine depreciation and amortization expense

EBITDA 30.7 million

Less:Depreciation and amortization expense(balance) ($8976923.08,)

(30.7-21.7230769)

EBIT $8976923.08

(14.9230769+6.8)

Less:interest expense (6.8 million)

EBT 14.9230769 million

(100%)(9.7/0.65)

Less:tax 35%(14.9230769*35%) 5.2230769 million

Net income(65%) 9.7 million

Therefore depreciation and amortization expense will be 9.7 million
