,3. At the beginning of a recent year, The Walt Disney Company’s liabilities equaled

equaled $50,388 million. Liabilities decreased $100 million during the year.

What were beginning and ending amounts for Walt Disney’s equity?

b. $23,791 million beginning equity and $27,042 million ending equity
c. $23,791 million beginning equity and $24,291 million ending equity
d. $27,042 million beginning equity and $25,183 million

ending equity Answer: c

Using the accounting equation at the beginning of the year:

Assets($50,388 - $400) = Liabilities($26,197) + Equity(?)
Thus: Beginning Equity = $23,791

Using the accounting equation at the end of the year:
Assets($50,388) = Liabilities($26,197 - $100) + Equity(?)
Thus: Ending Equity = $24,291

d. $20,343 million, 76.0%

$15,470 $10,597 $4,873
millions)

($4,873 million). Its owner financing comprises 31.5% of its total financing ($4,873 million/
$15,470 million).


7. The total assets of Ford Motor Company equal $315,920 million and its liabilities equal
$304,269million. What is the amount of Ford’s equity and what percentage of financing
is provided by its owners?

a. $ 11,651 million, 3.9%
b. $620,189 million, 49.1%
c. $620,189 million, 50.9%
d. $ 11,651 million, 3.7%


Answer:

d ($
Assets = Liabilities + Equity
$315,920 $304,269 $11,651
millions)



Ford receives more of its financing from nonowners ($304,269 million) versus owners
($11,651 million). Its owner financing comprises 3.7% of its total financing ($11,651
million/ $315,920 million). The relatively low level of equity capital is primarily the result
of the fact that Ford is actually a blend of two companies: the automotive manufacturing
company and the financial subsidiary. The financial subsidiary has a balance sheet similar to
that of a bank, that is, relatively little equity capital. The blend of these two operating
entities results in a balance sheet that is more dependent on borrowed funds than would be
the case if Ford consisted solely of the manufacturing company.
