Case Study: S & S Air’s Mortgage
Background:
S&S Air manufactures light aircraft. The owners of S & S Air, Mark Sexton and Todd Story, were impressed by the work Chris had done on financial planning. By using Chris’s analysis and looking at the demand for light aircraft, they decided that their existing fabrication equipment was sufficient, but that it was time to acquire a bigger manufacturing facility (Ross, Westerfield, & Jordan, 2011, p. 161). Rather than building a new facility they have found a suitable building for renovation at an estimated expense of $22 million dollars. Mark and Todd

Mark and Todd should consider the monthly payment and the ability of the company to repay the loan. If S & S Air can afford to pay a higher payment, they can pay down the principal faster. Assuming the bank will not charge a fee for an early payoff; S & S could save money and avoid the risk associated with the balloon payment option or interest-only loan. By taking the 20 year loan option and making additional principal payments to decrease the interest owed, S & S could pay off a 20 year loan in 158 months. The following table illustrates the option presented above:
If Mark and Todd choose this option, they could budget accordingly each month. If they are struggling they could forgo the additional principal payment during any given month. By choosing this option, S & S Air could save money and have flexibility in the mortgage payments. References

In accounting there is much to be learned, about the financial aspects of a business. In the past five weeks I have learned the importance of financial reports and how they relate to the success of an establishment. These reports may include balance sheets and income statements, which help accountants and the public grasp the overall financial condition of a company. The information in these reports is really significant to, managers, owners, employees, and investors. Managers of a business can take and deduce financial

Financial statements depict a picture of the financial well-being of a business and are used for financial performance analysis (Nelson, 1942; Stichler, 2008). First, the statement of financial position consists the assets that are owned by the HCO, the liabilities that the HCO has to the outsiders, and a portion of the HCO’s assets that belong to its owners (Finkler et al., 2013). It is a balance sheet indicating what the HCO has and what the HCO owes at a specific
Understanding the finances of a company is important but knowing the significance of the financial statements is crucial to the operations as well. Reviewing the statement of financial position, operating statement and statement of cash flows serve as a guidance to management and executives on the day-to-day activities of an organization (Finkler et al., 2013). For example, the statement of financial position (balance sheet) shows the assets and

Some people that can afford the 15-year rate might opt to pay the extra $241.01 and pay off their mortgage in half the time, the only problem with this is once you sign up for the 15-year term you must make this payment each and every month. If the extra $241.01 becomes difficult to make no matter what the reason, the only way to reduce the payment is to refinance the property.
This is a case about three different companies dedicated to the manufacturing of aircrafts. Those three major companies are: Boeing, Airbus Industry and McDonnell Douglas; each of one was struggling to produce enough aircraft to satisfy a seemingly unquenchable need for passenger and freight transport around the world, developed in this form many kinds of aircrafts in different models and styles.

The “financial statements are formal reports providing information on a company's financial position, cash inflows and outflows, and the results of operations” (Hermanson, p.22). There are four main components that make up a financial statement. The four parts are, balance sheet, income statements, cash flow and, statement of owner’s equity. The balance sheets role is to define the company’s assets liabilities and revenue of the business. The income statement shows the income within the company. Cash flow reviews the position of the company by cash payments and receipts. Lastly, the statement of owner’s equity shows the amount of earnings, stock and other capitals of people in the company. (Hermanson, p.34-35).
