oksano4ka [1.4K]

Buying an existing business is beneficial because it does not require large initial capital.

Option a

<u>Explanation: </u>

The idea of buying an existing business is much easier than that of starting a business. Buying an existing business includes lesser risks. When we are buying a business, it means that we are taking over an operation that is already generating some profits or cash flows.  

Moreover, it does not need enormous amount of capital since, majority of the setups will already be there and all we have to do is just to reconstruct and maintain it. We cannot be sure that whether the previous business holder had professional financial dealings with the government side so, it sometimes may become our duty to initiate the papers and get financial support from the government if required.

In addition, there are cases in which the lenders that the previous owner dealt with will not be the same as ours. Therefore, the answer would be option a.

Identify the possible reason or reasons for this stark difference between income inequality and consumption inequality. Intergen
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

  • The richest quintile has the ability to save a larger percentage of its income.
  • Individuals experiencing temporary fluctuations in their incomes are more likely to maintain moderate spending habits.

Explanation:

First part of this question reads:

In the United States, the richest quintile of the population receives 13 times as much income as the poorest quintile. However, the richest quintile only spends 4 times as much as the poorest quintile.

The richest quantile can afford to save more than the poorest quantile because they get enough income to manage their daily needs and then save. The poorest quantile on the other hand face a daily struggle and so have to spend all or most of their income to survive.

When the richer quantile goes through temporary fluctuations, they maintain moderate spending because they know it is temporary and so they keep saving. This is not the case for the poorer quantiles who have to spend according to their income - regardless of its fluctuating - to survive.

Why might one firm have positive cash flows and be headed for financial trouble?
Katena32 [7]
A cash flow statement merely describes the net change in a company's cash flow in investment, operational, and financial activities at a given period in time. As such, a bad debt in the company's portfolio cannot be reflected correctly in the cash flow statement. A company can also result to selling products at a much lower prices than it purchased them. While this is reflected in the cash flow statement, it does not translate into overall profitability of the concerned company.
