Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The change in carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is $1400 - $1000 = $400. This includes the sale of equipment for $40, which means the net change due to other transactions is $400 - $40 = $360. The acquisition of equipment financed by share issue is a non-cash transaction, so it is not included in investing cash flow. The depreciation expense for the year is also a non-cash transaction and is not included in investing cash flow. Therefore, the net change in property, plant and equipment due to investing activities is ($360).
