Answer:

a) 17.5%

Explanation:

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

Simple rate of return = Annual net income  ÷ Initial investment

where,

Annual net income is

= Sales revenue - cash operating expenses - depreciation expenses

= $250,000 - $100,000 - ($400,000 ÷ 5)

= $70,000

And, the initial investment is $400,000

So, the simple rate of return is

= $70,000 ÷ $400,000

= 17.5%

Dividing the annual net income by the initial investment we can get the simple rate of return

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: policy protection; corrections.

Explanation:

Policy protection is related to the regulation of individuals' reckless behavior such as <em>abuse or trafficking of drugs, theft, domestic violence, school safety, and juvenile misbehavior</em>. Local governments -counties and districts- have the power to enforce law over those matters until their jurisdiction allows it.

Criminal corrections involve all the penalties a state must impose on individuals who committed improper behavior and were against the law, thus, they must be punished.
