What is the effect of $10 of depreciation on the three accounting statements?
1 Answers↳
Income Statement: Because depreciation is an expense, Operating income (EBIT) decreases by $10. Net income also declines by EBIT*(1-tax rate). Assuming a 35% tax rate, NI decreases by $6.50. Balance Sheet: Cumulative depreciation increase $10, so PP&E (Plant Property and Equipment) decreases by $10). The reduction in net income also causes a Reduction in Retained Earnings by $6.50. Cashflow Statement: Net income decreased by $6.50 and D&A increased $10, cashflow from operations increases by $3.50. Less
Could you walk me through the cash flows statement? What are some items that would be found under each heading?
1 Answers↳
The cash flows statement shows cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. In the operating activities area, for example, you would add back depreciation expense to net income (since no cash has actually left your firm). Investing activities could include money from sales of land, and financing could include receiving cash from a loan, or giving out dividends to shareholders. Less
If someone offered you $1000 today or paid out at $100 a month over the next ten months, which would you take?
5 Answers↳
The answer should be the $1000...$1000 today is worth more than $1000 ten months from now or $100 every month for 10 months due to the time value of money. Less
↳
Money loses value over time...
↳
I think it depends largely on the market. 1000 dollars a couple years ago if put into the right fund would be nice now. With how long the market has been expanding It would be a tough choice now. Additionally, they might be checking personality on this. Do you want your money now, or do you like something steady even if the value depreciates over time? Less

If I stacked pennies from the ground to the top of the Empire State Bldg, would they all fit onto a floor of the building?
3 Answers↳
1. Yes on the terrace. 2. Conver pennies into Dollers on better brokerage and get it fit into a bag. Now you can more money fit at any floor. Less
↳
The Empire state building is approximately 1200 ft. I'm guessing there are 100 floors. This means 12 ft of single stack pennies per floor. 100 of them. I think we can fit 100 stacks of pennies on any floor in New York City. Less
↳
Yes. 1) break coins into stacks in relation to each window/floor (gives height of floor) 2) highly likely sum of stacks is less than the square of the floor height I'm sure there's another way to answer this as per Vault, though I like to come up with diff answers instead. Less
