Answer:

D) Company HD has a higher ROE than Company LD.

Explanation:

This is easier to explain using an example:

                                           HD                               LD

total sales                          $100                            $100

profit margin                       10%                               10%

total assets                         $50                              $50

total liabilities                     $30                              $25

total equity                         $20                              $25

debt ratio                            0.6                               0.5

return on equity            = 10/20 = 50%            = 10/25 = 40%

Since company HD has a higher debt ratio, it means that stockholders' equity is lower compared to company LD. Since ROE measures how much profit is generated by each dollar invested, a lower denominator results in a higher ratio.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Cost\ of\ 112m^2 = 4.48

Explanation:

Given

<u>Dimension</u>

Length= 8m

Breadth = 6m

Height = 4m

Cost per m^2 = 0.04

Required

Determine the total cost to paint 4 walls

First, we need to calculate the area of the 4 walls.

Area = 2*(Length * Height) + 2 *(Breadth * Height)

Substitute values for Length, Breadth and Height

Area = 2*(8m* 4m) + 2 *(6m* 4m)

Area = 2*(32m^2) + 2 *(24m^2)

Area = 64m^2 + 48m^2

Area = 112m^2

Cost per m^2 = 0.04.

Cost\ of\ 112m^2 = 112 * 0.04

Cost\ of\ 112m^2 = 4.48
