Juliette [100K]

Answer:

OPtion (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Issuance of common stock = $100,000

Dividends paid to the company's stockholders = $2,000

Depreciation expense = $6,000

Repayment of principal on bonds = $40,000

Proceeds from the sale of the company's used equipment = $39,000

Purchase of land = $230,000

Cash flow from financing activities:

= Issuance of common stock - Dividends paid to the common stockholders - Repayment of principal on the company's own bonds

=  $100,000 - $2,000 - $40,000

= $58,000

Therefore, the net cash inflow from financing activities is $58,000.
