Company HD pays more in taxes.

Answer: Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The debt-to-capital ratio is calculated by taking the company's interest-bearing debt, both short- and long-term liabilities and dividing it by the total capital. Total capital is all interest-bearing debt plus shareholders' equity, which may include items such as common stock, preferred stock, and minority interest.

Since the debt to capital ratio of this firm is higher than the other firm, then the firm will have to pay a higher tax compared to the other firm which is given in the question.

Answer:

The effective annual rate of interest is "10.38%".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Nominal annual interest rate,

Q = 10%

i.e.,

   = 0.10

Quarterly compounding,

q = 4

Now,

The effective annual rate of interest will be:

=  [{1 + (\frac{Q}{q} )}^q] - 1

On substituting the given values in the above formula, we get

=  [{1 + (\frac{0.10}{4} )}^4]  1

=  [(1 + 0.025)^4] - 1

=  (1.025)^4-1

=  1.10381289 - 1

=  0.10381289

On converting it into percentage, we get

=  10.38%
