Now, Investing activities include cash activities related to non current assets. Noncurrent assets include long-term investments, property, plant, and equipment etc.

Any amount paid on Purchase of Plant & Equipments by let's say a manufacturing concern will amount use of cash in an investment activity related to company's sustainability efforts. As purchase of P&M is in line with the company's efforts to stay in the industry and compete with other entities in the same industry and sustain.

Now, Financing activities include cash activities related to non current liabilities and owners’ equity. Non current liabilities and owners’ equity items include the principal amount of long-term debt, dividend payments etc.
