    A) $50

    Explanation:

    The total dividend paid that is reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows is $50.

    The cash dividend of $50 which is paid by Penrose will be reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year 2021. The dividend of parent company Penrose is reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows and subsidiary company Speedy dividend is not reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows because these are considered as internal transfers of cash therefore are not reported.
