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.

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

11.11%

Explanation:

<em><u>The full question with table is attached.</u></em>

<em><u /></em>

We need the rate of return formula using Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). The formula is:

R=R_f+\beta(R_m-R_f)

Where

R is rate of return (what we need)

R_f is risk-free return rate (5% = 0.05)

R_m is the market rate of return (11% = 0.11)

To get \beta, we take the weighted average of the portfolio.

Weight of Stock A = 1,075,000/3,000,000 = 0.3583

Weight of Stock B = 675,000/3,000,000 = 0.225

Weight of Stock C = 750,000/3,000,000 = 0.25

Weight of Stock D = 500,000/3,000,000 = 0.1667

Portfolio Beta = (0.3583*1.2) + (0.225*0.50) + (0.25*1.40) + (0.1667*0.75) = 1.02  

Now, we calculate rate of return using CAPM formula:

R=R_f+\beta(R_m-R_f)\\R=0.05+1.02(0.11-0.05)\\R=0.1112

That is 11.12%, or from answer choice, it is <u>11.11%</u>

Tanuja Singh is a CPA and operates her own accounting firm (Singh CPA, LLC). As a single-member LLC, she reports her accounting
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Tanuja is not entitled to a QBI deduction in 2019.

Explanation:

Tanuja has QBI from her accounting firm of $540,000

W-2 wages = $156,000

Unadjusted basis of property used in the LLC = $425,000

Taxable income before the QBI deduction = $475,000

Modified taxable income = $448,000.

Her accounting firm is a "specified services" business and she and her spouse's taxable income before the QBI deduction is $475,000, which exceeds the threshold for 2019.
