Non of the answer is correct, as depreciation is incorporated in cash flows because it is a non cash item reported in operating income.

So it is added back to operating income to arrive at operating cash flows

Because it reduces tax liability (in financial terms, that effect is called a "tax shield")

I think the answer is A is unavoidable cost.

In the operating activities section of the cash flow statement, add back expenses that did not require the use of cash. Examples are depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense.
