Hello! I am having trouble with getting the answer to noncurrent assets. The correct answer is D. 140,000 but I am having trouble understanding why. Can you please provide calculations and explanations on how to arrive at that answer? Also, can you please provide your explanations in Word or Excel (since handwritten responses are hard to read). I would greatly appreciate it.
