Hey there!
I think you meant to type "value of what you <em>own</em> minus what you owe". Let me know if this assumption isn't correct, though I don't know what the value of what you owe is besides... ya know, what you owe.
The value of what you own is called you assets. This can include anything of value that you own, particularly your pricier possessions. Think of a vintage family heirloom or a highly–priced article of clothing. Assets, though, includes the value <em>everything</em> that you own that you could possibly put a price tag on if you were certain someone would buy it.
What you owe is called your liability. This is basically any debt that you owe anyone, whether it be your buddy who footed your lunch bill the other day when you didn't have enough cash or a student loan you used to pay for college.
Your assets minus your liability is called your net worth. This is basically what you are worth in total. This makes sense, since any debt you owe will be taken out of the amount that you are worth or any money that you have.
Net worth will be your answer.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
What Mark is displaying is selective distortion. This term is used when individuals continue to interpret information in accordance to the belief that they are supporting.
In the example, even though the news have reported that his favorite shoe brand uses child labor to manufacture the brand’s shoes, Mark chooses to believe that the media is lying instead of accepting the report as true.
Answer:
The Question is Incomplete; Full Question is as follows;
Using variable costing, what is the contribution margin for last year?
<em>Contribution Margin = $362,900</em>
Explanation:
Computation of expenditure margin by differential costing;
<em>Sales </em><em>Minus </em><em>variable cost </em>
= $1,558,000
- Variable cost of Manufacturing(190,000 units *$1.84)
= $349,600
— variable sales and administrative costs(190,000 units *$4.45)
= $845,500
= contribution margin = $362,900
<em>Keep in mind that; </em><em>Set or Fixed expenses and overhead costs are not taken into account when trying to calculate the contribution margin.</em>
One of the steps in solving this problem is this one:
As we know as shown above, the joournal entry for 2014 and 2015 will include the investment balance, increases and decreases to equity and intra-entity profits realized and deferred. Also the balance of the acquisition needs to be calculated.
Calculation of the book value of the purchase made as the book value of Company K times percent purchased:
400,000 * 0.40 = 160,000
Then, calculate the difference in the acquisition and the book value of the purchase:
210,000 - 160,000 = 50,000
