Sunrise Textiles Ltd (AS 3) issued 50,000 equity shares of Rs 10 each at a premium of Rs 5 per share, fully received in cash. It also repaid a term loan of Rs 2,00,000 and paid Rs 1,00,000 as dividend. What is the net cash flow from financing activities (ignoring interest)?

Financing inflow from shares is Rs 7,50,000 (50,000 x Rs 15). Outflows are Rs 3,00,000 (loan repayment plus dividend). The net result is an inflow of Rs 4,50,000, because issuing capital increases cash more than repayments reduce it.

  1. ANet outflow of Rs 2,50,000Correct
  2. BNet outflow of Rs 3,00,000
  3. CNet inflow of Rs 4,50,000
  4. DNet outflow of Rs 5,000

Explanation

Share issue inflow = 50,000 x 15 = Rs 7,50,000. Outflows = 2,00,000 + 1,00,000 = Rs 3,00,000. Net = 7,50,000 - 3,00,000 = inflow of Rs 4,50,000. So the correct option is the net inflow; the option listing an outflow is wrong.
