Answer:

The correct option is D. $52,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Atlantis’s cash flow from operating activities can be calculated as follows:

Atlantis Trading Inc.

Calculation of Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Items Amount ($)

Net income 45,000

Adjustment to reconcile net income

(Increase) decrease in current assets:

Increase in stock (5,000)

Decrease in accounts receivables 2,000

Increase (decrease) in current liabilities:

Increase in salaries payable 10,000

Cash flow from operating activities (52,000)

The above implies that:

Cash flow from operating activities = Net income - Increase in stock + Decrease in accounts receivables + Increase in salaries payable = $45,000 - $5,000 + $2,000 + $10,000 = $52,000

Therefore, the correct option is D. $52,000.
