CFS - positive or negative amount?
I tried this TBS on Ninja and couldn't figure out why I was supposed to write a positive amount in "Payments for acquisition of fixed assets" instead of negative? It is an outflow of cash. I assume the question wants us to write all positive numbers but is it normal that we just have to "guess" what to do?
Some other questions also didn't ask specifically but I entered negative amounts for "Payment for..." and got the answers correct.
Maybe the hint is somewhere but I just couldn't figure it out... Can someone give some tips for similar cases? I've never taken FAR before so I don't know if questions in the exam will be any clearer than this.
(I'm using Ninja as a supplement, my main review course is Uworld, and I also sometimes got similar issues with Uworld where I couldn't tell what the questions were asking...).
