* Operating Activities- Cash paid to suppliers. This falls under the operating activities section of the statement of cash flows. It represents cash outflows related to the company's core business operations, such as payments to suppliers for goods or services.

* Investing Activities- Purchase of shares. This is part of the investing activities section in the statement of cash flows. It involves cash outflows for acquiring long-term assets, including investments in shares or securities of other companies.

* Financing Activities- Redemption of debentures. This belongs to the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows. It involves cash outflows related to the repayment of long-term liabilities, in this case, the redemption of debentures.

* Cash and Cash Equivalents - Marketable securities. Marketable securities are usually short-term, interest-bearing financial instruments that are easily tradable in the market. Both cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities are reported on the balance sheet and indicate the company's liquidity.
