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). Limited liability ensures that the personal assets of the shareholders are protected from the corporation's debts and legal obligations, effectively separating the business entity from its owners. This distinction requires an analysis of the legal structures and their inherent risk profiles.

According to Modigliani-Miller (without taxes), what determines a firm’s total market value?
💡 Explanation:Modigliani-Miller (MM) Proposition I, in a world without taxes or market imperfections, states that a firm's market value is independent of its capital structure. Instead, the firm's value is determined by the present value of its expected operating earnings (income) and the risk of its underlying assets (risk class), often expressed as the EBIT discounted by the unlevered cost of equity (or cost of assets/business risk). This is because investors can use 'homemade leverage' to replicate the returns of any corporate capital structure.
