Answer:

Explanation:

It means that there must be a huge number of people that have little or nothing.

The most recent estimate of America's population is 331,000,000 roughly

1% of the population is 331,000,000 * 1/100 = 3,310,000

So that means that 3 million people own 33% of 14 trillion in property alone. These numbers are really hard to imagine.

1 trillion has 12 zeros behind it

so 14 trillion has 12 zeros behind it.

3 million people own 1,400.000,000 = 14 000 000 000 000 dollars worth of property.

That means that each person in that group of 3 million is 1 of 14 , 000, 000 in wealth just in property alone. The goods will dilute this somewhat, but I think you get the idea.

3 million people in the United States are multimillionaires, if they own 100% of the property. Of course that isn't true, but I think it's fair to say that they are not poor either.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

C. $49,600.

Explanation:

We can find the net cash provided by operating activities using the information given to us in the question. We will start from net income which is $43,000 and then add 5,800 to it because it is a current asset which is decreasing which means that the company received cash for it, then we will subtract 1,900 because it is an increase in inventory and we assume the company paid cash for it because there are no increase in accounts payable, and then we will add 2,700 because depreciation is a non cash expense, therefore we will add it back when we calculate the cash provided by operating activities.

43,000+ 5,800-1,900+2,700=49,600
