$5,200,000

Explanation:

Operating income before tax = Sales revenue - operating costs - Depreciation

                                                = $20,000,000 - $14,000,000 - $4,000,000

                                                = $2,000,000

Operating income after taxes = Operating income before tax  - [email protected]%

                                                 = $2,000,000 - $800,000

                                                 = $1,200,000

Operating cash flow = Operating income after taxes + Depreciation

                                  = $1,200,000 + $4,000,000

                                  = $5,200,000
