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%

Describe <br> four factors that determine wage differentials?
Snowcat [4.5K]

<span>The four factors that determine wage differentials include efficiency in labor, where skilled workers may get higher pay than the unskilled ones; working conditions is another factor, as performing one’s job in dangerous areas may give higher pay to compensate for the risks involved; discrimination also affects the wage rates and said rates may be biased against a certain person or group; lastly, there is the demand for laborers across occupations that vary, and the wage paid may depend on the desirability or the requirements needed for a certain job.</span>
