Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's analyze each transaction according to AS-3 rules:(A) Purchase of Furniture by issuing shares: This is a non-cash transaction (exchange of shares for an asset) and is completely excluded from the Cash Flow Statement.(B) Interest Paid: It represents cash outflow relating to financial capital structures, hence counted under Financing Activity.(C) Dividend Paid: Paid to suppliers of equity/preference capital, hence categorized under Financing Activity.(D) Issue of Bonus Shares: Bonus shares are capitalization of reserves and do not involve any cash movement (inflow or outflow), so they are excluded from the cash flow log.Thus, only (B) and (C) are active cash transactions reported under financing activity heads.
