Transaction #2:	Borrowed $5 million from a bank and used the proceeds to purchase equipment used in the manufacturing process.

With respect to these transactions, should Dart report transaction #1 as a financing cash flow and/or transaction #2 as an investing cash flow?

A) Neither should be reported as such.

B) Only one should be reported as such.

C) Both should be reported as such.

Retiring bonds by issuing common stock to the bondholders is a non-cash transaction and is disclosed separately in a note or supplementary schedule to the cash flow statement, rather than as a financing cash flow. The cash borrowed for the equipment purchase is a financing inflow and the cash cost of the equipment is reported as an investing cash flow in the cash flow statement. Had a bond been issued to the seller of the equipment, it would be treated as a non-cash transaction and reported only in the notes to the cash flow statement.
