Outflow of ₹1,00,000

Correct Answer:

Outflow of ₹1,10,000

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → Outflow of ₹1,10,000.

Current year proposed dividend is not included in cash flow statement as it will be approved in the next meeting and become due. It is shown as footnotes.

Buy back of own shares ₹1,00,000- Outflow of cash

Issue of bonus shares ₹50,000- no inflow of cash as bonus shares are issued from reserves.

Previous Year Proposed Dividend ₹10,000- Outflow of cash.

Total outflow = 1,00,000 + 10,000
                    = 1,10,000
