Correct option is 1.

Sale of property, plant and equipment- It is a cash inflow to be shown under investing activities.
Payment of cash dividend to the shareholders - It is cash outflow to be included under Financing activities.
Issuance of common stock to the shareholders - It is cash inflow to be included under Financing activities.
