Answer:

B. $25,900.

Explanation:

Using the cash flow statement format;

                                                                                   Amount  ($)

Cash provided by operating activities                            17,900.00  

Cash used by investing activities                                    (7,000.00)

Cash used by financing activities                                    (1,500.00)

 

Net Increase (Decrease ) in cash balance (a)             9,400.00  

 

Cash at the beginning of the year (b)                             16,500.00  

 

Cash at the end of the year c = a+b                             25,900.00  

The net balance is the net of the cash flows from the 3 activities (Operating, investing and financing). The cash at the end of the period is the net of cash flow from the 3 activities with cash at the beginning of the period.
