2. In our opinion 2014 was a good year for Golf America because, for example, net income increased by 110% from 2013 to 2014. Not only did net income increased but also Inventories and property, plant and equipment and Stockholder’s Equity increased. Golf America also decreased its long-term notes payable from $264,000 in 2013 to $179,000 in 2014 (32% decrease).
