e. $138,000 of net cash provided.

Answer 1

Answer: d. $138,000 of net cash used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Financing activities in the Cashflow statement have to do with Equity and Debt so the net cash from financing will be;

= Issuance of common stock - Payment of cash dividend - purchase of treasury stock - repayment of outstanding bonds

= 46,000 - 15,000 - 62,000 - 107,000

= -$138,000

There was a Net cash outflow of $138,000 which means $138,000 of cash was used.
