Financing activities show: cash from issuing common stock $20,000; cash to redeem bonds $50,000; cash dividends paid $6,000. What is net cash flow from financing activities?

A($24,000)
B$36,000
C($36,000)
D($76,000)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. ($36,000)
1. Inflow: issuing stock +$20,000. 2. Outflows: redeem bonds −$50,000; dividends −$6,000 = −$56,000. 3. Net = $20,000 − $56,000 = ($36,000), a net outflow shown in parentheses. 4. Trap: ($24,000) omits the dividends payment. _Source: Jonick, Principles of Financial Accounting (CC BY-SA 4.0), §7.2.3 "Financing Activities Section", p.277_
