Answer:

Issuance of bonds is a cash inflow

Payment of interest is a cash outflow

Explanation:

The issue of the bond at $200,000 face value would be a cash inflow under the financing activities of the cash flow when issued since more cash was received from the bondholders.

However,the payment of bond interest of $10,000 yearly is a cash outflow under the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows,since Norton Corporation would be parting with the amount on yearly basis till the bonds are retired.
