Computation of Ending Balance of Accounts Receivables:

Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities = Net Income + Depreciation + Decrease in Inventory - Decrease in Accrued wages and taxes + Decrease in Accounts Payable + (Beginning Accounts Receivable - Ending Accounts Receivable)

$244 million = $150 millions + $85 millions + $14 millions - $15 millions - $10 millions + ($45 millions - Ending Accounts Receivable)

$244 million = $224 millions + ($45 millions - Ending Accounts Receivable)

Ending Accounts Receivable = $224 millions + $45 millions - $244 million 

Ending Accounts Receivable = $25 millions

So, the correct option is 2nd "$25 millions".
