Answer:

The answer is: B) An inflow of $12,000

Explanation:

Croft Company's cash flow should include the total cash inflow (the company received money) of $12,000. Even if the company bought the land the day before, paying the $10,000 yesterday, the cash flows are independent one from another. It should have recorded the outflow of $10,000 "yesterday".
