Answer:

13%

Explanation:

The computation of the average rate of return on the investment is shown below:

= Annual net income ÷ average investment

The annual net income is shown below:

Increase in revenue $40,000

Less: Increase in expenses ($25,000)

Pretax income from investment $15,000

Less: Income tax expense $5,250      ($15,000 × 35%)

Net income from investment $9,750

The computation is shown below:

For increase in expense

= Annual cash operating expenses + Depreciation expense based on straight line method

= $10,000 + ($150,000 - $0 ÷ $10,000)

= $10,000 + $15,000

= $25,000

And, the average investment would be

= (Initial investment + salvage value) ÷ 2

= ($150,000 + $0) ÷ 2

= $150,000 ÷ 2

= $75,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the rate would equal to

= $9,750 ÷ $75,000

= 13%

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Alcohol is alcohol, and depedning on your weight, even just 2 drinks in your system would be enough for you to be considered impaired. Your friend may feel fine, but after several drinks they are not functioning as well as they should, and will still get in trouble with the police if they get pulled over and are breathalized. Tell your friend that you will drive home; if you both have had drinks, find someone else to drive you or call a taxi. It doesn't matter if it was 1 drink or 6, alcohol is alcohol.
