Answer 1

Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct, and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Explanation:

Assertion (A) is correct because depositing cash into a bank account does not result in an inflow or outflow of funds for the company; the total liquidity remains exactly the same. Reason (R) is also correct and accurately explains the assertion because both physical cash and bank balances are classified together as components of Cash and Cash Equivalents.
