<span>Given that a
firm has return on assets (roa) of 15 percent, and debt-equity ratio of
60 percent.
Then, equity multiplier = 1 + Debt-equity ratio = 1 + 60/100 = 1 + 0.6 = 1.6
Return on equity (roe) is given by return on asset multiplied by the equity multiplier.
Therefore, the firm's return on equity is 1.6 x 0.15 = 0.24 = 24%.

Answer:
= 3.72%
Explanation:
We know,
The price of a preferred stock is calculated by dividing the dividends from preferred stock by the required rate of return of preference share. Assuming the stock is growing constantly.
The formula to calculate -
Price of preferred stock = Dividend from preferred stock ÷ required rate of return
Given,
Dividend from preferred stock = $3.35
Price of preferred stock = $90
Therefore,
$90 = $3.35 ÷
or, = $3.35 ÷ $90
or, = 0.0372
Hence, = 3.72%
The required return = 3.72%
I would go with option D, Read it aloud to yourself.
Whenever I write an official letter, I read it aloud to myself, just to make sure i have written everything right. And also is it making sense or not. Also the purpose of the letter has been delivered successfully.
So this is the strategy I take initially after writing an official letter just to check if there is any error or not. Or does it require any correction.
In this way I usually identify my mistakes if I have done in the letter. Then I correct them and read it again. Through this way, i can identify the purpose of the document, I can define my audience, and i can delete/change all the long or repetitive words.
Answer:
9.60; 10.62
Explanation:
In 2016:
Average accounts receivables:
= (Beginning accounts receivable + Ending accounts receivable) ÷ 2
= (37,500 + 40,800) ÷ 2
= 39,150
Accounts receivable turnover = Net sales ÷ Average accounts receivables
= $376,000 ÷ 39,150
= 9.60
In 2017:
Average accounts receivables:
= (Beginning accounts receivable + Ending accounts receivable) ÷ 2
= (40,800 + 43,000) ÷ 2
= 41,900
Accounts receivable turnover = Net sales ÷ Average accounts receivables
= $445,000 ÷ 41,900
= 10.62
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the net present value is presented in the attachment below:
For project A, the net present value is $91,771.53 and for project B, the net present value is $79,390.69
It is computed after considering the discounting factor that comes from
= 1 ÷ (1 + discount rate)^number of years
for year 1, it is
= 1 ÷ (1 + 0.06)^1
The same applied for the remaining years
