$221,100

Explanation:

Operating activities considers the changes in current assets and liabilities. Investing involves the cash flows as a result of long term asset related activities while financing are more of long term debts and stock related activities.

Cash outflows are considered to be negative and inflows positive.

Amount received = $65,300 - $14,000

= $51,300

This company's cash flows from investing activities

= $51,300 - $89,000 + $198,000 + $60,800

= $221,100

This is the net cash generated by investing activities.
