Explanation:

The Cash Flow Statement was created to ensure that businesses would know just how much hard cash they actually have. This Statement is therefore different from others in that in only records cash when it has been received and/or disbursed thus making it easier for a company to know how much cash it has.

The Investing Section of the Cashflow statement deals with fixed assets as well as transactions involving securities and bonds of other entities as those are investments.

When cash is spent on these transactions it is a Cash Outflow and is therefore subtracted.

When cash is received from such transactions it is considered a cash inflow and is added.
