CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: (a) $295 million

(b) $326 million

Explanation:

Given that,

Sales = $900 million during 2016

Cash = $871 million

Cost of goods sold = $280 million

Expenses for the year totaled = $325 million

Paid for Inventory = $375 million

Paid for everything else = $285 million

Beginning cash = $115 million

(a) Net Income = Sales - Cost of goods sold - Expenses for the year totaled

                        = $900 - $280 - $325

                        = $295 million

(b) Carter's cash balance at the end of 2016:

= Cash + Beginning cash - Paid for Inventory - Paid for everything else

= $871 + $115 - $375 - $285

= $326 million
