Answer:
1. $100,000 and 25%
2. $137,200 and 34.3%
3. $150,000 and 27%
Explanation:
1. It does not expand
a. Net income= $100,000 (as given in the question)
b. Return on equity= (net income)/(shareholder’s equity)
Shareholder’s equity= $400,000
Thus return on equity= 100000/400000 = 0.25 or 25%
2. It expands and issue $160,000 in debt
a. Net income= $100000 + 50000 – 12800 (debt interest 8% of $160000)
= $137,200
b. Return on equity= (net income)/(shareholder’s equity)
= 137200/400000
=0.343 or 34.3%
3. It expands and raises equity of $160000
a. Net Income= $100000 + 50000
= $150000
b. Return on equity= (net income)/(shareholder’s equity)
= 150000/(400000 + 160000)
Where ($560,000) 400000 + 160000 is shareholder’s equity
= 0.27 or 27%

Answer:
There are many different price adjustment strategies which can be implemented in the current market.
Explanation:
Psychological pricing:
Psychological pricing is a strategy in which the price of a product is displayed with mostly one cent difference so the whole number shown is less by $1 and this difference can get higher if the price of the product is more.
Example 1: The price for a toy in a toy shop is $4.99, if rounded this will be $5 but the whole number visible is $4.
Example 2: The price of a laptop is $193, this again is nearly $200 but the price is reduced by $7 in order to influence their customers into buying the product.
Example 3: The price of a car is $35,995, this again is about $36,000 but the buyer may be influenced by this technique and result in purchasing the product with such price.
Geographical Pricing:
Geographical pricing is a strategy where different prices are charged in different outlets, this strategy is made keeping in mind the purchasing power of the locality, if the local people can pay higher price for a product then the price is high there but same product may have a lower price in an area where people can not pay high price.
Example 1: Price of a T-shirt is $15 in a posh area while the price of the same T-shirt is $5 in an area with poor locality.
Example 2: Price of a hair brush is $10 in a poor area while the same brush is available in a posh area at a rate of $35.
Example 3: Price for a food item is $6 in a restaurant in posh area while the same burger is available for $3 in a restaurant in a poor area.
