In 20x8, the following pledges were made: $35,000 in unrestricted contributions for use in 20x8; $20,000 in contributions restricted for use in 20x9; and a $400,000 contribution restricted for the establishment of a permanent endowment. it is anticipated that 10% of all pledges except the endowment pledge will be uncollectible. pledges receivable for 20x8 should be

$455,000

Explanation:

As the question states what will be the pledges receivable for 20x8 therefore, we will calculate all the pledges:

$35,000 + $20,000 + $400,000 = $455,000

Hence, the answer is $455,000 as we take into account all the pledges for the year 20x8.

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.
