What We Learned From Donald Trump's Personal Financial Disclosure Form

Donald Trump has filed a new personal financial disclosure form with the Federal Election Commission, a federally mandated document that shows a candidate’s personal assets, business positions and annual income.

In the 104-page financial report, Trump again claims that his national golf club in Westchester is worth “over $50,000,000,” despite the fact that his lawyers initially argued it was actually only worth $1.35 million in a recent tax dispute. Attorneys for Trump later revised their estimated value of the golf course to $9 million following questions from ABC News and others.

The report shows that Trump has at least $1.47 billion in assets and at least $315 million in liabilities. Trump claims he is worth more than $10 billion -- these records neither confirm or deny that claim, because asset values are reported in large ranges.

Melania Trump saw a sharp decline in income from her company, Melania Marks Skincare, LLC., over the last year, from more than $100,000 in royalties to none, according to the report.

The report also shows investments by Trump in companies like Apple and Amazon, as well as the parent company of Oreo -- all of which he has attacked on the campaign trail.

Each presidential candidate is required by law to file a personal finance disclosure form with the FEC for each year of their candidacy.
