Answer:

c. E decrease $395,000, OCF increase $105,000 and CB increase $105,000

Explanation:

Since there is an additional depreciation expense of $500,000 in the year 2016 so it would reduce the earnings also the depreciation expense would be added back in the operating section of the cash flow statement.

Therefore the option c is correct
