The cash inflow from sales is calculated by adjusting the sales figure for changes in accounts receivable. The accounts receivable increased by $25,000 ($50,000 - $25,000), indicating that not all sales were collected in cash. Therefore, cash inflows from sales were $300,000 (sales) - $25,000 (increase in accounts receivable) = $275,000.
