Carrying value at end year = $50,000 + $150,000 + $30,000 = $230,000

Explanation:

Whenever there is an investment in a company, for more than 20 % shares then, equity method for investment is followed.

Under this method if any earnings from investment is made then such profit of subsidiary is added to cost of investment, for this the date of recording is considered, here the investment as on 31 December = 30,000 shares, therefore profits to be added will only be of 10% shares i.e. 10,000 shares acquired on 2 January and not on 31 December.

Investment made on 31 December will not be considered, for profits as was not acquired during the year.

Therefore profit on 10,000 shares = $300,000 10% = $30,000

Carrying value at end year = $50,000 + $150,000 + $30,000 = $230,000

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.
