To find the present value of net cash flows occurring during year 6, we need to discount them back to present value using an appropriate discount rate. It is not specified in the question what discount rate we should use, so we'll assume a discount rate of 10%.

We are given the following cash flows for year 6:
- Cash inflows: $500,000
- Cash outflows: $200,000

The net cash flow for year 6 is the difference between these two, which is $300,000.

To calculate the present value of this net cash flow, we'll use the formula:
Present value = future value / (1 + discount rate)^n

where n is the number of years in the future (in this case, 6).

Plugging in the numbers, we get:
Present value = $300,000 / (1 + 0.10)^6
Present value = $152,300 (rounded to the nearest $100)

Therefore, the answer is choice B, $152,300.
