Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Assets Liabilities and Capital

Cash                     $20,000 Accounts payable          $80,000

Non-cash assets  200,000 Mitchell, Loan                    10,000

                                             Matthews, capital            50,000

                                             Mitchell, capital                66,000

                                             Michaels, capital               14,000

Total assets     $220,000   Total Liab. and capital $220,000

Totals assets = $220,000

Total liabilities     (90,000)

Net assets =     $130,000

Partners' capital:

Matthews, capital  50,000

Mitchell, capital     66,000

Michaels, capital    14,000

Total capital =      130,000

b) Each partner is entitled to the ratio of his capital balance or the profit and loss sharing ratio, if any.  The net asset is computed by deducting all the liabilities, including one of the partners' loans, from the total value of realizable assets.  Ordinarily, partners' loans enjoy priority over capital refund during partnership liquidation.

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.
