    A) subtraction from net income under the operating activities section

    Explanation:

    Under the indirect method to determinate the cashflow from operating activities we reconcile the net income with the change in the net working capital.

    The working capital is the current assets and current liabilities.

    For this case, the account receivable account, increase to 48,000 from 45,000

    This increase means, less sales were collected, so cash "outflow" as the cash from sale is not being converted into cash. It could also be understand as the company use 3,000 in financing their customers. This also is seeing as a decrease in cash flow.
