Answer: increase in inventory

Explanation:

increase in inventory : An increase in a company's inventory shows that the company bought more goods than it has sold. And the buying of additional inventory requires the use of cash, it means there was an additional outflow of cash. An outflow of cash has a negative effect on the company's cash balance.
