Correct Answer: Decrease


Solution : Answer = Decrease

An increase in Working Capital will result in a decrease in cash flow from operating activities. The reason is that the increase in working capital is due to an increase in Current assets. Also, an increase in working capital, such as higher receivables or inventory, requires more funds tied up in operations, reducing the amount of cash available for operating activities.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
