    B) $56,130

    Explanation:

    The cash flow statement shows how the company's operating, investing and financing activities affect the flow of cash by generation or use.

    The investing activities section is where the purchase of fixed assets and the amount received for the disposal of these assets are accounted for.

    Given that a gain was realized and the book value of the asset was given, the amount received for the disposal

    = $5,278 + $50,852

    = $56,130

    This is the amount that will be reported in the investing activities section of the statement of cash flows as an inflow.
