What cash management actions most likely occurred during the year?
1) Return On Assets = Net Income / Total Assets
= Net Income + Interest After tax / Total Assets
= [210 + 120(1 -0.3)] / 2000
= 294 / 2000 = 14.7%
2) Return on Equity = Net Income / Shareholders Equity
= Net Income / Common Stock + Retained earnings
= 115000 / (150000 + 50000)
= 115000 / 200000 = 57.5%

Cash Outflow in Investing activities can be a result of purchasing long term assets/ investments & Cash Outflow in Financing activities can be a result of repayment of Debts & loans.
