Week 10 Reading Reflection

I thought it was surprising that start-up companies have issues with delays in their accounts receivables, especially when large companies usually offer discounts for early payments, such as 2/10/n30. Despite being a finance major, I still tend to get confused between the different types of activities (investment, financing, operating), though the author explained them well. If I could ask the author two questions, I would ask for a special way to remember which activities are which. Moreover, I would ask how much liabilities tend to be compared to stockholders' equity as a portion of a start-up company's assets. I did very well in my basic accounting and finance courses, and given the nature of this chapter there's nothing I really disagree with the author on here.
