Correct Answer: Deducted


Solution : Answer = Deducted

When calculating cash flow from operating activities, a decrease in bills payable represents a decrease in liabilities, indicating cash outflow. Therefore, it should be deducted from net profit. This adjustment reflects the actual cash impact of changes in bills payable on the company's operating cash flow.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
