I believe the answer is: High-income earners use tax laws to their advantage to reduce their tax rates

High income earners tend to possess financial knowledge or ability to allow experts who understand the full scope of taxation laws and how to recorded the transactions in a way that make it eligible for tax deduction. This makes a lot of high income earners manage to avoid paying taxes even if they manage to obtain a lot of profit.

stepan [7]

Answer:

net cash provided is $5,635

Explanation:

                                                  Amount ($)

Net Income                                 4,750

Depreciation                                  885

Change in inventory                     (200)

Change in accounts payable    <u>    200 </u>  

Net cash flows from Operation<u>   5,635</u>

The depreciation is a none cash item that was initially deducted to get the net income, hence it is added back in the cash flows statement.

An increase in inventory represents an outflow of cash hence the negative value. The increase in trade payable is an increase in a liability representing an inflow of cash hence it is positive.
