Jackson Company had a net increase in cash from operating activities of $10,000 and a net decrease in cash from financing activities of $2,000. If the beginning and ending cash balances for the company were $4,000 and $11,000, then net cash change from investing activities was_____________.A. an outflow or decrease of $1,000. B. an inflow or increase of $2,000.C. an inflow or increase of $1,000.D. zero.

Answer 1

A. an outflow or decrease of $1,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ending balance of cash = Opening balance of cash + Net cash flow of the period

Ending balance of cash = Opening balance of cash + ( Cash flow from operating activities + cash flow from investing activities + cash flow from financing activities )

$11,000 = $4,000 + $10,000 + cash flow from investing activities - $2,000

$11,000 = $12,000 + cash flow from investing activities

Cash flow from investing activities = $11,000 - $12,000

Cash flow from investing activities = -$1,000
