Explanation:
A financial asset is a non-physical asset that that gets it's value from a contract that was signed by the parties involved. Financial assets include Bonds, stocks and even cash amongst others.
Real Assets on the other hand are physical assets that can be seen and hence have an inherent value. Examples include buildings and cars.
a. Toyota <u>creates</u> a <u>real asset</u>- the factory. The loan is a <u>financial asset </u>that is <u>created</u> in the transaction.
The factory becomes a real Asset that is tangible and has an inherent value. The loan was created by an agreement between Toyota and the bank and so is a Financial Asset.
b. When the loan is repaid, the <u>financial</u> asset is <u>destroyed</u> but the <u>real</u> asset continues to exist.
When the loan is repaid, Toyota no longer owns that financial asset because it has gone back to the bank. However, the Real Asset which is the factory that they were able to build will remain with Toyota.
c. The cash is a <u>financial</u> asset that is traded in exchange for a <u>real</u> asset, inventory.
As already mentioned, cash is a financial asset. Inventory is a tangible substance with an inherent value not determined by a contract and so is a Physical Asset. Trading cash for Inventory is therefore trading a financial asset for a physical one.
