Answer: A) Operating, $12,000; Financing $6,000.

Explanation:

Operating Activities deal with the cashflow related to the operations of the business and it's short term obligations. Interest payments on loans are short term and are considered part of normal business operations so the outflow from Operating activities is;

= $2,000 interest on short-term notes payable + $10,000 interest on long-term bonds

= $12,000

Financing Activities relate to cash-flow surrounding the capital of the firm. This includes Equity and long term debt. Dividends have the impact of reducing equity and so will fall under Financing activities.

Dividends = Financing = $6,000
