Answer:

net cash provided by operating activities 60,000

Step-by-step explanation:

net income 70,000

Change in working Capital

Increase Inventory (40,000)

Increase Account payable 30,000

Net change in working capital (10,000)

net cash provided by operating activities 60,000

The working capital is the current asset and current liabilities.

the dividend, bonds and mortgare are not operating activities.

the securities are considered cash.
