Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Planned investment is 5 million plus 750 thousand plus 25 thousand equals 5.775 million. Unplanned investment is 200 thousand minus 750 thousand plus 30 thousand minus 25 thousand equals negative 545 thousand. Actual investment is 5 million plus 200 thousand plus 30 thousand equals 5.23 million (equals 5.775 million minus 545 thousand).
