Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:-

Incorrect

ROA = Net Income ÷ Average assets

= $101,900 ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000) ÷ 2)

= $101,900 ÷ $561,500

= 0.18

ROE = Net Income ÷ Average equity

= $101,900 ÷ (($340,000 + 356,000) ÷ 2)

= $101,900 ÷ $348,000

= 0.29

Debt Ratio = Total debt ÷ Average Assets

= $217,000 ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000) ÷ 2)

= $217,000 ÷ $561,500

= 0.39

EPS = Net Income ÷ Number of Common Shares

= $101,900 ÷ 22,000

= $4.63

Correct

ROA = Net Income ÷ Average assets

= ($101,900 - $8,500) ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000 - $8,500) ÷ 2)

= $93,400 ÷ $557,250

= 0.17

ROE = Net Income ÷ Average equity

= ($101,900 - $8,500) ÷ (($340,000 + 356,000 - $8,500) ÷ 2)

= $93,400 ÷ $343,750

= 0.27

Debt Ratio = Total debt ÷ Average Assets

= $217,000 ÷ (($550,000 + $573,000 - $8,500) ÷ 2)

= $217,000 ÷ $276,500

= 0.78

EPS = Net Income ÷ Number of Common Shares

= ($101,900 - $8,500) ÷ 22,000

= $4.25

We have 6 payment and then, a lump sum capitalize until age 65

First we calculatethe value up to the end of the six year:

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

First year:

$940 \: (1+ 0.09)^{6} = Amount$

Amount 1,576.47

Second year:

$940 \: (1+ 0.09)^{5} = Amount$

Amount 1,446.31

Third Year:

$1040 \: (1+ 0.09)^{4} = Amount$

Amount 1,468.04

Fourth year:

$1040 \: (1+ 0.09)^{3} = Amount$

Amount 1,346.83

Fifth year:

$1140 \: (1+ 0.09)^{2} = Amount$

Amount 1,354.43

Six year:

$1140 \: (1+ 0.09)^{1} = Amount$

Amount 1,242.60

Sum at the end of the six year: 7,080.25‬

<u>Then this capitalize up to 65 birthday:</u>

from the seventh birthday up to the 65th birthday

65 - 7 = 58 years

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

Principal 8,426.68

time 58.00

rate 0.05000

$8426.68 \: (1+ 0.05)^{58} = Amount$

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Here the correct option is A) both net export and investment.

When ever there is fall in the price level, it causes a fall in the price of domestic exports to other nations and on the other hand causing rise in price of foreign imports from other nations , so from this it results in the increase in exports and decrease in import of the nation, which leads to increase in net export ( which is export - import ). When there is decrease in price level, making investment would become cheaper and more investment could be made in the opportunities available.
