A corporation is considering expanding operations to meet growing demand. With the capital expansion, the current accounts are expected to change. Management expects cash to increase by $20,000, accounts receivable by $40,000, and inventories by $60,000.

A) an increase of $120,000.
B) a decrease of $40,000.
C) a decrease of $120,000.
D) an increase of $60,000.

B) a decrease of $40,000

Explanation:

As we Know Working capital is the the net or current assets and current liabilities.

Increase in Current Assets

Cash                              $20,000

Accounts receivable    $40,000

Inventories                   $60,000

Total Increase in CA   $120,000

Increase in Current Liabilities

Accounts payable       $50,000

Accruals                       $10,000

Long-term debt           $100,000

Total Increase in CA   $160,000

Increase in Working Capital =  Increase in Current Assets - Increase in Current Liabilities

Change in Working Capital = $120,000 - $160,000 = -$40,000

As current Liabilities increased more than the current assets, so the working capital will decrease by $40,000

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
