Correct Answer: Decrease in Trade Payables


Solution : It's the reverse of an increase in accounts payable, as you might now anticipate. If the amount owed to vendors or suppliers has reduced, this indicates that money has really been paid to them, leaving the business with less cash. Because of this, a Decrease in accounts payable signals a decline in cash flow.Hence it will be deducted from Operating activity.

Hence the correct answer is option 2.
