Correct answer = B

"Financial Reporting Mechanics," Thomas R. Robinson, Hendrik van Greuning, Karen O'Connor Rubsam, R. Elaine Henry, and Michael A. Broihahn (CFA Institute, 2007)
2008 Modular Level I, Vol. 3, p. 37
Study Session 7-30-a
identify the groups (operating, investing, and financing activities) into which business activities are categorized for financial reporting purposes and classify any business activity into the appropriate group
For a bank, lending money and earning interest on it is an operating activity; but for a manufacturing company, they are not in the business of lending or investing money and the interest they receive would be more correctly classified as an investing activity.
