C. N(440,000)

Explanation:
To determine the net cash flow from investing activities, we look at the cash used for purchasing long-term assets and any cash received from selling these assets. The formula is:

Net Cash Flow from Investing Activities=Proceeds from Sale of Motor Vehicle−Purchase of Property, Plant and Equipment\text{Net Cash Flow from Investing Activities} = \text{Proceeds from Sale of Motor Vehicle} – \text{Purchase of Property, Plant and Equipment}

Substituting the provided figures:

  • Proceeds from the sale of motor vehicle: N10,000
  • Purchase of property, plant, and equipment: N450,000

Calculating:

Net Cash Flow from Investing Activities=10−450=N(440,000)\text{Net Cash Flow from Investing Activities} = 10 – 450 = N(440,000)

This result indicates a net cash outflow of N440,000 from investing activities, reflecting that the cash spent on acquiring assets exceeded the cash received from selling assets.
