Now add 5g towers and covid deaths!

There are plenty of taco bells and mcdonald's without drive-thru. This is such a car brain comment. Ever been to a city?

I've never been to a Dunkin donuts.

Also, the colorful dota are too big.

Not only that. It uses blobs that tell you nothing about the density. At least color regions with more darker and regions with less lighter. This is so ugly.

That makes sense they would capitalize it, but the amortization is still a tiny percentage. There's no way to slice this that isn't very little money spent on r&d compared to the profits. I used to work health care supply chain and r&d was never a major expense. The selling costs including buying employees boats to take doctors out on "as friends" because it didn't count as bribery if you didn't give the doctor the boat directly. Crazy shit

that guy on tiktok made me love subway again

These dots are huge. There is only like 2 pizza huts in vt but the whole state is almost covered.

It looks like America does not run on Dunkin after all.

This is Q3 2022 data. It’s accurate

We effectively pay for every other country to have low drug prices. They make up the revenue loss by charging Americans more

That’s great and all, but that $8.6b in net profit is my biggest concern. Drug makers blame high R&D costs to develop new meds on exorbitant drug costs, but it’s all just going right back to shareholders, whether directly through dividends, retained earnings, or share buybacks.

And that $8.6b in net profit is just the last 3 months. These figures are just Q3 2022. FY2021 they brought in a whopping $21.98b in net profit from $81.3b in revenue. And spending $13.8b in R&D. 59% more in net profit attributed to shareholders than R&D.

I would really like to see this for traditionally regional chains, like in n out or waffle house.

Starbucks is especially concentrated in larger towns and cities, while subway seems to have expanded to more remote towns while still maintaining a presence in cities.

>Where are you getting that percentage

It’s the US corporate tax rate. The 4% figure is based on their reported profits, but this isn’t the same as taxable income

The actual tax paid so far in 2022 for them is around $5 billion. It’s just that their effective tax rate includes deferred taxes in future years, which are very negative

If you look at their 10-Q, a lot of their in-process R&D this year came from acquisitions, which are capitalized on the balance sheet and them amortized over 15 years

Also, any foreign R&D they have abides by foreign reporting rules, in which development costs are also capitalized

A balance sheet is a statement of assets and liabilities. They mean two fundamentally different things.

Where are you getting that percentage? Compare like to like. They're paying 4% if that data is real, as their effective tax rate. For citizens, the effective tax rate is 14.6%, see source below.

The top 50% of taxpayers paid 97.1% of all federal income taxes in 2018. Among those taxpayers, the average income tax rate was 14.6% and the average tax paid was $20,663. The OECD reported that the U.S. "tax wedge" for the average single worker was 28.4% in 2021.

All across the northwest, really. Looks like the donut drought starts at the Dakotas.

Huh, thats interesting that there are almost 2x more subways than mcdonalds.

I also would have thought burger king and taco bell would be higher up and closer to mcdonalds

Get the fuck with it Dunkin’, FUCK - sincerely, i hate Starbucks

Freakin potato oles are amazing.

Density? Density is samples (objects, units) per area. These maps do not in any way depict density.

How does Burger King even exist?
