The correct answer is **d. as an outflow of cash under investing activities.**<br /><br />The statement of cash flows categorizes cash flows into three main activities: operating, investing, and financing. The purchase of non-current assets (like property, plant, and equipment, or long-term investments) represents a *use* of cash for investment purposes. Therefore, it's shown as a cash *outflow* under the *investing activities* section.<br />
