Lori's saving is difference between the disposable income and consumption expenditure.

Disposable income = Income - taxes + inetrest earn.
Disposable income = $30,000 + $150
Disposable income = $30,150
Saving = Disposable income - Consumption expenditure

Saving = $30,150 - $20,000
Saving = $10,150
Lori save $10.300 in 2016

(b) Lori wealth at the end of 2016 = Wealth in the begining of 2016 + Saving made during 2016

Wealth in the begining of 2016 = Value of books, DVDs, golf clubs + money in saving account.
Wealth in the begining of 2016 = $2,500 + $3,000 = $5,500
Lori wealth at the end of 2016 = $5,500 + $10,150
Lori weath at the end of 2016 = $15,650
