sale of equipment = 130,000

Purchase of land = 119,000

Cash flow from investing = sale of equipment - Purchase of equipment - purchase of land ...............1

put all value in equation 1 we get

Cash flow from investing = 14400 - 149000 - 119000 = - 253600

so that

Net cash used from investing activities is $253600

Answer 2

The list of investment activities:

Purchase of Equipment = - $ 149,000

Proceeds from Sales = $ 130,000

Purchase of Land = - $ 119,000

here, the negative sign depicts the amount is paid

thus, the net cash flow from the investment activities

= - $ 149,000 + $ 130,000 + (- $ 119,000)

or

the net cash flow from the investment activities = - $ 138,000
