Calculate cash flow from investing activities on the basis of the above information.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Cash used ₹2,20,000
The machine purchased during the year is found from the Machinery Account at cost:
Opening machinery + Purchases − Machine sold = Closing machinery
₹5,00,000 + Purchases − ₹2,50,000 = ₹6,00,000
Purchases = ₹3,50,000 (outflow)
Sale of machine = ₹1,30,000 (inflow)
Net cash used in investing activities = ₹3,50,000 − ₹1,30,000 = ₹2,20,000
