Answer:

The answer is B. $66,000

What are the items under investing activities of cash flow? - Sale and purchase of long-term assets or non-current assets. Purchase is an outflow while sale is an inflow.

The book value of the sold equipment was $55,000 and gain was $11,000. Therefore the equipment was sold for:

$55,000 + $11,000

=$66,000.

So there was an inflow of $66,000.
