An extract from Pia's Diner's cash flow forecast for July is shown below - OCR - GCSE Business - Question 9 - 2021 - Paper 1

To find the total inflow, we can use the cash flow formula:

$$ext{Closing balance} = ext{Opening balance} + ext{Total inflow} - ext{Total outflow}$$

Rearranging this gives us:

$$ext{Total inflow} = ext{Closing balance} - ext{Opening balance} + ext{Total outflow}$$

Now we plug in the values from the cash flow forecast:

• Closing balance = -4200
• Opening balance = -2300
• Total outflow = 13500

So,

$$ext{Total inflow} = -4200 - (-2300) + 13500$$

Calculating this:

ext{Total inflow} = -4200 + 2300 + 13500 = 9100\

Thus, the total inflow is £9300.

The expected answer is B: £9300.
