Unit 4 Discussion: Are Credit Cards Money?
One of the factors of production is capital – money. People and companies use and manipulate money - generally to create more money or to use what money they have as efficiently as possible. People - investors and founders and owners - put money and capital into a business. A company uses this money to build its business model.
Companies and people need to know whether they are making a profit or a loss, how much they owe, how much they own. Just like a company, we need to know if we are using our money wisely and efficiently. We need to keep track of the money we spend and what we owe. We need to know how we are performing over time. We need to know our own personal assets, our liabilities, and how much equity we have and are building.
For example, many of us are using student loans to build our own business model. We're investing in ourselves, in our future. Even though we have to repay these loans, this is a good investment.

What is the difference between a cost and an expense? When does a cost become an expense? Do all costs become expenses? Explain
A company is experiencing lower than expected sales. The company’s executives agreed that in order to make up some of the lost revenue’s impact on the bottom line, expenses must be lower. One of the expenses to reduce was equipment that was purchased for $4,400,000 two years ago and which was estimated to have a useful life of eight years and a salvage value of $400,000. The company uses straight line deprecation, therefore, the company has recorded accumulated depreciation of $1,000,000 to date.
The executives want the estimated useful life changed from eight to 12 years so that depreciation expense will be reduced. The argument is that the useful life was just an estimate and by changing it the company can be aligned with the industry since some competitors in the industry also use 12 years’ useful life.
- Identify the stakeholders in the case.
- Determine whether the proposed change in assets’ useful life is unethical or good business practice.
