Answer: B. a lower per capita income.

Step-by-step explanation:

Per capita income refers to a measure of economic development that divides a nation's GDP by the population of the country. It is meant to show in theory, the amount of wealth that each person in the country has.

A developed country like the United States would have a very high GDP which when divided by the population of the U.S. would give a higher per capita income. This is unlike a developing country that would have a lower GDP and by extension, a lower per capita income as well.
