Assume that a national restaurant firm called BBQ builds 10 new restaurants at a cost of $1 million per restaurant. It outfits each restaurant with an additional $200,000 of equipment and furnishings. To help partially defray the cost of this expansion, BBQ issues and sells 200,000 shares of stock at $30 per share. What is the amount of economic investment that has resulted from BBQ’s actions? How much purely financial investment took place?

12,000,000; $6,000,000

Explanation:

the amount of economic investment from BBQ’s actions

BBQ builds 10 new restaurants at $1 million per restaurant

= $1 million × 10

= $10 million

equipment and furnishings = $200,000 for each restaurant

Total = $200,000 × 10 restaurants

$2 million

Total economic investment from BBQ’s actions = $10 million + $2 million

= $12 million

B. How much purely financial investment took place?

BBQ issues and sells 200,000 shares of stock at $30 per share

But the total

= 30% × $2 million

= $600000 for each restaurant

Total for the 10 restaurants will be

$600000 × 10

= $6,000,000

answer; the correct answer is (0.08);

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
