A. The best place to get this kind of info is have an independent (or your own) realtor do a CMA for you (comparative market analysis). This will have average price per square footage for comparable homes (i.e. homes built within the last two years of so that have same bed/baths/amenities) that sold within the last 6 months. P.S. Many builders have a overstock of unsold new homes in their inventory. Do a little homework on the builder, and see if there are any news reports about them - they may be desperate enough to take a low ball offer. Also, check the local unsold inventory of new homes - the more it is greater than 6 months of inventory, the more flexible they are on price.

What is a newer car comparable to the good ol' Geo Metro?
Q. I really like everything about the metro. No frills, 3 cylinder, extremely good gas mileage, and reliable. However, all the metros I can find these days have 12000 miles and a rebuilt transmission. Are there any newer cars, maybe produced post-2000, that are comparable to the metro?

A. It depends on where you are but in North America, the only 3-cylinder vehicle you will find is the Smart car. The problem with the Smart is it is designed primarily as a commuter car. It only has 2 seats and very little luggage space. If you need something with a back seat and more storage room, a car such as the Honda Fit or Toyota Yaris (each with a 1.5 L 4-cylinder) or a Hyundai Accent, Nissan Versa, or a Chevy Aveo/Pontiac Wave/Suzuki Swift+ (the last 3 cars are all the same car under the skin), each with a 1.6 L 4-cylinder would be the closest.

When reviewing a financial report, why should information be reliable, relevant, consistent, and comparable?
Q. In other words, why are these accounting characteristics important? What kinds of problems could be created if a financial report is not reliable, relevant, consistent, and comparable?
Asked by Piper - Sun Apr 26 04:28:40 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Erm the short answer is because otherwise it will not be useful. Everything that we do has a purpose right? So if accounting does not have the above characteristics, then it makes no use to the person relying on it. Accounting just wont be there, there will be no need for it. What it does is that is represent a true and fair view of the business affairs for the use of the stakeholders (concerning parties - investors, directors, shareholders, employees, Government, etc). Reliable - if you are investing thousands of pounds in a firm, then you want to be able to rely on the information that you base your decision on. What if you could look at BS and know that if may not be true at all. It needs to be reliable in order to be useful. … [cont.]
