A firm has a current ratio of 2:1. If it uses cash to pay off a portion of its accounts payable, what is the effect on this ratio?
💡 Explanation:Since the current ratio is greater than 1:1, an equal reduction in both current assets (cash) and current liabilities (accounts payable) leads to a proportional increase in the ratio (e.g., 200/100 = 2.0; after paying 50, 150/50 = 3.0).

A business invests 10,000 in a project that generates 12,000 in revenue. What is the Return on Investment (ROI)?
💡 Explanation:Return on Investment (ROI) is calculated using the formula:
ROI = (Gain from Investment - Cost of Investment) / Cost of Investment.
In this case, Gain = 12,000 and Cost = 10,000.
ROI = (12,000 - 10,000) / 10,000 = 2,000 / $10,000 = 0.20 or 20%.

What characteristic primarily distinguishes a corporation from a sole proprietorship or general partnership?
💡 Explanation:Limited liability is the fundamental legal characteristic that distinguishes a corporation from a sole proprietorship or a general partnership (which typically involve unlimited liability).

This distinction requires an analysis of the legal structures and their inherent risk profiles.
