Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Debt ratio is defined as the ratio of total debt to total asset. which means a company has more liabilities than assets.

So company HD will have a higher ROE because of them having a higher debt ratio.

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.

a. increase in the demand for the good.

Explanation:

As we know that

In the case of normal goods, there is a positive relationship between the income and the quantity demand. If the income rises, the quantity demand is also rising and vice versa

But in the case of inferior goods, it shows an inverse relationship between the income and the quantity demand. If the income rises, the quantity demand is falling and vice versa
