Answer: $22 billion

If households receive $84 billion in wages (labor), $22 billion in rent (land), and $32 billion in interest (capital), households are paid ($160-$84-$22-$32) or $22 billion for providing entrepreneurial ability?

Entrepreneurial ability is a mix of many types of abilities measured by education, work experience, and the length of work.
