The correct option is D

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

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.

The letter D. Assumption of the risk.

Explanation:

I believe the Best-of-the-Rest company is reliable for the quality of the products it produces and resells. Trading food is very dangerous because it needs a very close surveillance by the owner and supervision. A part of a mouse ear at the bottom of the can may have been overlooked in the packaging. Alternatively, it may have been posed by someone with bad intentions to undermine the company's credibility. Everything is possible.
