    a. $118,000

    Explanation:

    When preparing a cash flow statement, using indirect method we add decrease in current assets and we deduct increase in current assets.

    Here it is provided that income reported = $110,000

    Opening balance of accounts receivables = $40,000

    Closing balance of accounts Receivables = $32,000

    Change in Accounts receivables = Closing - Opening = $32,000 - $40,000 = - $8,000

    Therefore there is decrease in accounts receivables which is a current asset.

    Thus Cash Flow from operating activities

    Net Income = $110,000

    Add: Decrease in current assets = $8,000

    Net cash flow from operating activity = $118,000

    Correct option is

    a. $118,000
