From the following information, calculate net cash inflow or net cash outflow from financing activities:

April 1, 2016March 31, 2017
Long-term LoansRs. 2,00,000Rs. 2,50,000

During the year, the company repaid a loan of Rs. 1,00,000.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Understanding the situation:

Opening Balance of Long-term Loans = Rs. 2,00,000

Closing Balance of Long-term Loans = Rs. 2,50,000

Loan Repaid during the year = Rs. 1,00,000


To find the new loan taken during the year, we use:

Opening Balance + New Loan Taken - Loan Repaid = Closing Balance

2,00,000 + New Loan Taken - 1,00,000 = 2,50,000

New Loan Taken = 2,50,000 - 2,00,000 + 1,00,000 = Rs. 1,50,000


Cash Flow from Financing Activities:

ParticularsAmount (Rs.)
New Loan Taken (Inflow)1,50,000
Less: Loan Repaid (Outflow)(1,00,000)
Net Cash Inflow50,000

The net increase in loan balance of Rs. 50,000 reflects the combined effect of taking a new loan of Rs. 1,50,000 and repaying Rs. 1,00,000.

Correct Option: 1 (Rs. 50,000 Inflow)
