Wiggle Pools has total equity of $358,200 and net income of $47,500. The debt-equity ratio is .68 and the total asset turnover i
Westkost [7]

Answer:

It is 6.58%

Explanation:

Debt-Equity Ratio = Debt/Equity

0.68= Debt/358,200

Debt = 0.68 x 358,200

Debt = $243,576

Total Asset Turnover = Revenue/ Total Asset

Total Assets = Debt + Equity = $243,576+ $358,200=$601,776

1.2= Revenue/601,776

Revenue= 1.2 x 601,776

              =$722,131.20

Profit Margin = Net income/ Revenue x 100%

                       = $47,500/$722,131.20 x100%

                       = 6.58%

List at least two signs that entrepreneurship might not be a good fit for you.
ikadub [295]
Many people are entrepreneurs. My dad actually is, but anyway...

Entrepreneurs are people who own a company or business. They are not working for another company but working for themselves.

Many citizens don't feel confident in entrepreneurship and many don't know where to start. 

Some people prefer following orders instead of making them.
Or even some don't prefer hard work. 
Just to point out, entrepreneurship is very hard, not all are successful.

I hope this helped!
