Answer:

$85 million

Explanation:

Operating cash flow = EBIT - Taxes + Depreciation

Operating cash flow = $80 million - $24 million + $20 million

Operating cash flow = $76 million

Free cash flow = Operating cash flow - Investment in operating capital

$41 million = $76 million - Investment in operating capital

Investment in operating capital = $76 million - $41 million

Investment in operating capital = $35 million

Investment in operating capital = Change in Gross fixed assets + Change in Net operating working capital

$35 million = ($102 million - Beginning of year gross fixed assets) + $18 million

Beginning of year gross fixed assets = $102 million - $35 million + $18 million

Beginning of year gross fixed assets = $85 million
