The budgeted operating income of the Beach Division is currently $2,940,000 with total assets of $28,600,000 and noninterest-bearing current liabilities of $600,000. The proposed investment would add $18,000 to operating income and would require an additional investment of $120,000. The targeted rate of return for the Beach Division is 9 percent.

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
