If the smoothie shop owner adds [tex]$\$[/tex] 25,000$ to the small business loan to cover unexpected equipment repairs, what will be the total net worth?



Answer :

To determine the smoothie shop's total net worth, we must first calculate the total assets and total liabilities, incorporating the new information that an additional \[tex]$25,000 has been added to the small business loan. Step 1: List all the assets and calculate total assets The assets of the smoothie shop are: - Owned Inventory: \$[/tex]42,970
- Cash: \[tex]$229,682 - Savings Account: \$[/tex]135,327
- Owned Equipment: \[tex]$34,823 - Accounts Receivable: \$[/tex]10,265
- Property Value: \[tex]$25,789 To find the total assets, we sum these values: \[ \text{Total Assets} = \$[/tex]42,970 + \[tex]$229,682 + \$[/tex]135,327 + \[tex]$34,823 + \$[/tex]10,265 + \[tex]$25,789 \] Thus, \[ \text{Total Assets} = \$[/tex]478,856
\]

Step 2: List all the liabilities and calculate total liabilities

The liabilities of the smoothie shop are:
- Long Term Liabilities: \[tex]$56,000 - Building Mortgage: \$[/tex]110,650
- Small Business Loan (initial): \[tex]$186,987 - Additional amount for Small Business Loan: \$[/tex]25,000
- Other Debt: \[tex]$125,000 Note that the small business loan increases by \$[/tex]25,000 for the equipment repairs:
[tex]\[ \text{Adjusted Small Business Loan} = \$186,987 + \$25,000 = \$211,987 \][/tex]

To find the total liabilities, we sum these values:
[tex]\[ \text{Total Liabilities} = \$56,000 + \$110,650 + \$211,987 + \$125,000 \][/tex]
Thus,
[tex]\[ \text{Total Liabilities} = \$503,637 \][/tex]

Step 3: Calculate the net worth

Net worth is calculated by subtracting the total liabilities from the total assets:
[tex]\[ \text{Net Worth} = \text{Total Assets} - \text{Total Liabilities} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Net Worth} = \$478,856 - \$503,637 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ \text{Net Worth} = -\$24,781 \][/tex]

Therefore, the smoothie shop's total net worth, after adding the \[tex]$25,000 to the small business loan for equipment repairs, is \(-\$[/tex]24,781\).
