CRITICAL THINKING PROBLEM 1.1 Student answers will vary. The student’s reasons for choosing one form of ownership over another are more important than the specific choice made. Generate a discussion on the proposed name of the business. Ask the students if they think the name is creative. Sole proprietorship: Advantage—Heidi would be her own boss and could direct the business as she wants. Disadvantages—Heidi would be responsible for the debts and taxes of the business and may be limited in the amount of capital she could borrow to finance the business. Partnership: Advantage—Heidi would have one or more partners to assist with business operations and to contribute capital. Disadvantages—Heidi would have to share control of the business, as well as its profits. Heidi could be liable for the debts of the partnership. Corporation: Advantages—The business would be a separate entity. Capital would be easier to raise and liability would be limited to the assets of the business. Disadvantages—A corporation is a more complicated form of ownership and is usually more expensive to form. There is also more government regulation and, consequently, more paperwork with a corporation.

CHAPTER 2 ANALYZING BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS Chapter Opener: Thinking Critically The individuals in charge of keeping track of these transactions at Southwest as well as in other companies, are known as accountants. When recording the transactions, accountants are required to follow a set of rules and regulations known as GAAP. For every financial transaction that Southwest has, their accountants determine the accounts that were affected and then they record, report and then analyze these transactions. By doing so they can, at a specific point in time and over a stipulated period, be able to assess the company’s financial performance including profitability of the airline, assets owned by the company and of course the amount owed to creditors and owners.

Fast Facts • Southwest Airlines opened in 1971 with three planes flying between Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio. Southwest Airlines currently flies over 100 million passengers a year to 97 cities all across the country. • For the fiscal year 2012, the company’s net income was $421 million while its total operating revenue was $17.09 billion. • In 2012 Southwest served 63.3 million cans of soda, juices, and water; 14.1 million alcoholic beverages; 37.2 million bags of pretzels; 88.3 million bags of peanuts; 22.9 million Select-ASnacks; and 45.5million other snacks.
