Respuesta :

Answer:

.d. $277,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the amount reported as the investment is shown below:

= The value of the investment + investor share of the net income - dividend share of the net income

= $250,000 + 30% of $100,000 - 30% of $3,000

= $250,000 + $30,000 - $3,000

= $277,000

Hence, the amount reported as the investment is $277,000
