The difference between total assets of a firm and its total liabilities is called?
Lena [83]

The difference between the total value of assets and the total value of liabilities is equity. Also known as common equity and owners equity.

Assets represent valuable resources that your company manages. Liabilities represent the company's obligations, while both debt and equity represent how the company's assets are financed.

The sum of the difference between assets and liabilities is equity, which is the remaining net ownership of the company by the owners.

In its simplest form, a balance sheet can be divided into two categories: assets and liabilities. assets are items owned by a company that can provide future economic benefits. A liability is something you owe to another party.

Susie Smith signed a note agreeing to pay "Annie Greene, Mary Hodge" $1,000. The payment was for painting her house. An issue wi
kogti [31]

Incomplete question. The options read;

  • Mary is correct, but only because Annie signed the note "Green" instead of "Greene" as indicated on the note.
  • Mary is correct.
  • Mary is incorrect.
  • Mary is correct, but only because two payees are listed.
  • Mary is incorrect unless she can prove that Susie intentionally and purposefully spelled the name wrong to prevent negotiation.

Answer:

  • <u>Mary is incorrect.</u>

Explanation:

Indeed, since this just a case of name misspelling, the law in no clear terms states that such an endorsement would be counted as been illegal.

Remember, Mary acknowledges that the amount paid by Susie Smith was meant for both of them (Annie Green and Mary Hodge), hence there should be no question of illegality since funds were meant to be shared. In other words, this minor error can be overlooked.
