Final Answer : A, Explanation :  The net change in cash for the year can be calculated as the increase in total assets ($41,000) minus the increase in total liabilities ($21,000), which equals $20,000. Since there were no sales or retirements of property, plant, and equipment and no dividends paid during the year and the company did not issue any bonds payable or repurchase any of its own common stock, the only financing activity was the increase in long-term debt of $8,000. Therefore, the net cash provided by financing activities is $(8,000) and the answer is A.
