Classfication of non-current asset in cash flow statement?

[andrew4443]

If a business purchases some shop fitting for example on credit (lets said for $5,000), and they put a deposit down on it for $500 how is this classified in the cash flow statment?

Does the deposit of $500 go into operating activites or investing? (I thought it would be just investing but some people have said otherwise)

Investing

Correct^

Really? i thought deposit would go in operating because it's current. so your saying that say motor vehicle expenses would also be investing because it's relating to non current? ?

[sick muzza]

its not an expense, its a payment of the non current asset, so it is investing
