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%

: Jane and Sarah are both investors. Jane has invested thousands of dollars into one small company. Sarah has invested hundreds
Alja [10]

Answer:

Sarah has invested in sole proprietorship while Jane has invested in corporations

Explanation:

Sole proprietorship is owned and run by a single owner who is legally obligated for all business assets and liabilities. Since Sarah has invested thousands of dollars in one company, it looks like she has invested in sole proprietorship in which she is the owner.

Corporation is run by group of people who are not legally obligated for the assets and liabilities of the corporation. People can invest in more than one corporation as they are open for public offer. These investors earn dividends based on the earnings earned by the corporations So, possibly Jane has invested hundreds of dollars in different large companies.
