If indeed the books are straight forward, you may learn the general health of the business itself by analyzing the growth patterns.  Of course the in the "black" and in the "red" is a clear indication of the finanacial health.  Areas of concern can be discovered by preparation of a 'bottom line' or to learn exactly how much cash is flowing, not how much is only on paper.  Breaking down the books involves a detailed analysis of each category to eventullay learn the net worth of a venture.  After examining the books, compare them to the actual tax returns for at least 5 years prior.  Examine the companies internal auditor's reports but do so with a jaundiced eye since the person preparing those books may have been influenced a tiny bit when they recieved their pay check.  An auditor's background and reputation should be taken into consideration.  Ask to see more than the actual company books, ask for the original documents that were generated during large transactions and don't be put off by a non-disclosure agreement.

You just sold 300 shares of stock at a price of $42.06 a share. You purchased the stock for $39.80 a share and have received tot
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

$678

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of shares sold = 300

Selling price of each share = $42.06

Cost of purchasing shares = $39.80 per share

Total dividend received = $1,272

We can easily determine the total capital gain on this investment by comparing the sales value and purchase value of this stock.

Total capital gain on this investment:

= Sales value - Purchase value

= (Number of units × Selling price per unit) - (Number of units × cost of purchasing per share)

= (300 × $42.06) - (300 × $39.80)

= $12,618 - $11,940

= $678

uysha [10]

Answer:

a). Accounting profits=$6,000

b). Economic profit=-$6,000

Explanation:

a). The accounting profits for Gomez's pottery firm can be expressed in the form;

Accounting profits-Total monetary revenue-Total monetary expenses

where;

Total monetary revenue=$86,000

Total monetary expenses=excludes opportunity cost=wages+rent+materials+equipment=(14,500+7,500+18,000+40,000)=$80,000

replacing;

Accounting profits=(86,000-80,000)=$6,000

Accounting profits=$6,000

b). Gomez's economic profit

Economic profit=Total revenue-total costs

where;

Total revenue=(86,000+5,000+6,000)=97,000

Total costs includes opportunity cost=(80,000+23,000)=103,000

replacing;

Economic profit=(97,000-103,000)=-$6,000

Economic profit=-$6,000
