Correct Answer: shown as Cash from Financing activities


Solution : Answer = shown as Cash from Financing activities

The adjustment of an increase in the balance of 'Securities Premium' is shown as 'Cash from Financing Activities' in the Cash Flow Statement. This is because securities premium represents funds received from shareholders, which is a financing activity. If the value of securities premium is increased it means share issued at a premium. It should be shown as cash flow from financing activities.
Hence, the correct option is 1.
