A

financing cash flow = 12,000 - (-4,000) - 7,000 = $9,000

To determine the financing cash flow, we need to use the formula:

Net Cash Inflow = Operating Cash Flow + Investing Cash Flow + Financing Cash Flow

Given: Net Cash Inflow = $12,000 Operating Cash Flow = $7,000 Investing Cash Flow = $(4,000)

Substituting these values into the formula, we have:

$12,000 = $7,000 + (-$4,000) + Financing Cash Flow

To solve for the financing cash flow, we rearrange the equation:

Financing Cash Flow = $12,000 - $7,000 - (-$4,000) Financing Cash Flow = $12,000 - $7,000 + $4,000 Financing Cash Flow = $9,000

Therefore, the financing cash flow equals $9,000. The correct answer is option A. $9,000.
