Working note & explanation;

Amount of each items will be calculated as follow;

1. Payments for purchase of property, plant, and equipment;

(Beginning balance + Purchase in exchange of bonds – Sale) – Ending balance

(Beginning balance + Purchase in exchange of bonds – Sale) – Ending balance

($244700 + $20200 – $45400) – $274800 = ($55300)

2. Proceeds from the sale of equipment;

First of all let’s calculate accumulated depreciation on sold equipment;

(Beginning balance + Depreciation expenses – Ending balance)

($168200 + $37900 – $179200) = $26900

It is given that cost of equipment sold = $45400

Gain on sale of equipment is = $14400

Hence cash proceeds from sale of equipment ($45400 + $14400 – $26900) = $32900

3. Cash dividends paid;

Cash dividend paid will be calculated as follow;

(Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income – Ending balance of retained earnings – increase in dividend payable)

($91000 + $30900 – $104500 – $3000) = $14400

4. Redemption of bonds payable;

Cash dividend paid will be calculated as follow;

(Beginning balance of bonds payable + Issue of bonds in exchange for property – Ending balance of bonds payable)

($46300 + $20200 – $49200) = $17300
