Answer:

The question is is properly formatted ,find below question:

A&D inc is projecting the following increases and decreases over the next year.

Inventory - increases by $3 million

accounts receivable - decrease by $2 million

Accrued payroll taxes - increase by $1 million

fixing assets - increase by $5 million

long term debt - increase by $4 million

revenues - increase by $6 million

The correct option is D,not change

Step-by-step explanation:

The change in net working capital=change in current assets - change n current liabilities

change in current assets=increase in inventory-decrease in accounts receivable=$3 m-$2m=$1m

Change in current liabilities=increase in payroll taxes=$1m

Change in net working capital=$1m-$1m=$0

The correct option is d,not change since the change in net working capital expected is $0

Option C is wrong because that is change in both current assets and current liabilities respectively
