Answer:

The correct answer is option (a).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Book value = $54,000

Sold value = $63,000

As selling of property is the increase in investing activities.

So, we can calculate the gain value by using following formula:

Gain value = Sold value - Book value

Gain value = $63,000 - $54,000

= $9,000

Hence, the transaction should be shown as an increase of $9,000 from investing activities
