Yes, you are right on the money.\n\nNegative means cash when out to purchase investments, positive means investments were liquidated, cash came back in.

Net means after all deductions.  Gross means before deductions.\n\nIf you are uncertain then simply ask the company so there isn't any confusion.

The statement of retained earnings shows the changes in the retained earnings account for the accounting period from operating profits, operating losses, dividends, etc.  It's related to the balance sheet because retained earnings is a balance sheet item.  It's related to the income statement because profits/losses will change the retained earnings account.  Any cash transactions in the retained earnings account will be shown on the cash flows statement.  Hope I didn't miss any!

Hi April,\nTaking what you know you have some amount invested at 5% (or.05) and the remainder of 30,000 invested at 9% (or .09). Since the first amount is unknown, we will call it X. Once we invest that we have the remainder to invest at 9%. \n\nLet X= amout invested @ 5%\n30,000 - X = amount invested @ 9%\n.05X + .09(30,000 - X) = 1940\n.05X - .09X + 2,700 = 1940\n-.04X = -760\nX=$19,000 \n\n$19,000 @ 5%\n$11,000 @ 9%\n\nOR\n\nLet X = amount invested @ 9%\nSo, 30,000 - X = amount invested @ 5%\n\n X(.09)  + ((30000 - X)*.05) = 1,940\n.09X - .05X + 1,500  = 1,940\n.04X = 440\nX= 11,000\n\n$11,000 @ 9%\n$19,000 @ 5%\n\n\nConfirms\n\nYou may further confirm:\n($11,000)(.09) + ($19,000)(.05)\n=$990 + $950 = $1,940!\n\nHave fun with your math :-)

Retained earnings and depreciation are accounting figures and do not represent cash flows.  Retained earnings itself cannot generate cash, neither can depreciation.\n\nOn a balance sheet, retained earnings is an accumlative figure representing the amount of income retained (or lost) by a business in each year of its existance.  It does not represent cash balances.  In fact, when preparing a cash flow statement you ignore it completely\n\nDepreciation is an attempt to ensure annual accounts, inparticular the annual profit figure, show a fair figure for profit in that year.\n\nFor example if you were a farmer who had\nincome of £10,000\nand\ncosts of £5,000 you would make a\nprofit of £5,000.\n\nHowever if bought a tractor in one year which cost £10,000 which would last for 10 years.  You would make a loss of £5,000 in one year and profit in the next 9 when the cost of the tractor was actually helping you make that profit.  Is this a fair way of showing profit?  Nope no really.\n\nThe international accounting standards require that you spread the cost of the tractor out across the years that you will get benefit from the tractor (say £10,000 divided by 10 years = £1,000 per year).  This means you would make a profit of £4,000 rather than a loss.  Much fairer.\n\nYou can calculate the cash flow (which can be negative and positive) in a particular year by starting with retained earnings in that year and adding back in the depreciation charge for the year and any other non-cash adjustments (such as provisions) and taking off any increase of Inventories, adding in any decrease in Inventories, taking off any decrease in trade creditors, adding in any increase in trade creditors and taking off any increase in debtors and adding in any decrease in debtors.  This is a very simplistic view and you would do well to look at an example.\n\nTry searching the net for How to prepare a cash flow statement using the indirect method.

The Tax Office has issued a Practice Statement concerning the tax issues arising when there are distributions of trust income and capital gains to separate beneficiaries.\n\nBased on the technical application of the law, a beneficiary entitled to a share of trust ‘income’ pays tax on that share of the trust’s net (taxable) income. As a capital gain is not ‘income’, beneficiaries entitled to income may be taxed on capital gains distributed to other beneficiaries, although they have no entitlement to the cash.\n\nThe Practice Statement outlines two practical approaches that will be accepted by the Tax Office in certain circumstances.\n\nThe first enables the beneficiary who receives the benefit of the capital gain to bear the tax.\n\nAlternatively, in certain cases, the trustee can be chosen to recognise the tax liability. A written agreement may be required between the trustee and the beneficiaries. \n\nThe Practice Statement focuses on trusts that have separate ‘income’ and ‘capital’ beneficiaries. However, its application to ordinary discretionary trusts is also acknowledged.\n\nOn contrary it differs from country to country with the percentage or the amount, but the basic remains same... check the link...

Return on assets will be 1.7 * 15% = 25.5%\n\n---\n\nRearranging the forumlas:\n\nNet income = Profit margin (15%) * Sales\n\nTotal assets = Sales/Total Asset Turnover(1.7)\n\nso...\nReturn on assets = Net income / Total assets\n                 = (15% * Sales) / (Sales/1.7)\n                 = 15% * 1.7

First, I should not that the "yield" I have been reporting is the interest earned.  Add $10,000 for the total amount in the account at the end of the investment period.\n\nSecond, you wrote the formula incorrectly.  The formula for continuous compounding has to include the interest rate, so\nA = Pe^(rt)\n\nGiven the information from the previous question ($10,000 at 10% for 2 years), continuous compounding would yield $2,214.03.\n\nIf we know that the bank returned $15,000 on a $10,000 deposit at 10%, the length of time must have been 4.05 years.\n\nIn 6.93 years, a deposit will have doubled.\n\nI apologize for the delay on responding to these questions--I have been on vacation.

Net Asset value. In other words, the total value of all the holdings of the mutual fund (stock, bonds, cash, etc) divided by the number of shares.\n\nThat is the cost one share of the fund.

Short term gains are taxed at the regular tax rate, just like interest and dividends.  To compute gain, subtract orignial cost, brokerage fees and "reinvested dividends" from net sales proceeds.  Your broker should provide a statement.

It could be a business term, when you look at the financial statements of a company, there are different sections, the balance sheet, the income statement, and within those you have the "net" income, and net worth of a company. \n\nThe net income is income after all expenses, giving you the true net, which generally would come over onto the balance sheet to form the net worth of the company. \n\nIt sounds more confusing than it is really, I would recommend taking a business class, or asking someone who you may know that has a business, if they can show you their balance sheets, as you are learning or curious how financial statements are prepared. \n(this info is private though, so some may not wish to share).\ngood luck.

Loss of $40.\n\n$100 is an investment, it only shows up on your Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement. If it is a grant, it will prolly go under Equity in BS; if you have to return it - under Debt (be grateful old folks do not charge interest)

It depends on the equity later on down the road. Does the \n\nproperty hold value? Is this the only place you have \n\nlooked? It is your investment which you would need to think \n\nabout- it not just a yes or no answer.

This is an Income Statement that describes the operating performance of a Company for over a period of time (in this case quarterly).  A Balance Sheet will show a snap shot of the financial position of a Company at a fixed point in time.  \n\nIt's hard to say whether this is a "good" company without more context but the revenue growth is strong (good) but the Company is losing money in every quarter.  The most concerning aspect of this is the negative Gross Profit.  That's hard to recover from unless the Company can show substantial continued revenue growth and a large percentage of the "Cost of Revenue" is fixed - i.e. the costs do not increase in line with revenue.
