<span>Muckrakers were writers who mostly wrote about corruption in government and business. These American journalists were critics of many things. They earned their name from President Theodore Roosevelt who borrowed the term from John Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress" where a customer was so occupied in raking muck that he paid no attention to anything around him.

Answer:
Explanation:
Rate of return on common stockholder's equity for 2019:
= (Net Income - Preferred Dividend) / Av. common stockholder's equity
= ($94,000 - $26,000) / $312,000
= $68,000 / $312,000
= 0.2179 or 21.79%
Av. common stockholder's equity 2019 :
Total stockholder's equity 2018 ( Common) = Total stockholder's equity - Stockholder's Equity attributable to preferred
= $318,000 - $22,000
= $296,000
Total stockholder's equity 2019 ( Common) = Total stockholder's equity - Stockholder's Equity attributable to preferred
= $350,000 - $22,000
= $328,000
Av. common stockholder's equity 2019 = ($296,000 + $328,000) / 2 = $312,000

The financial meltdown followed the collapse of the hot money bubble, whereby high interest rates and fixed foreign exchange rates were pegged to the U.S. dollars by these mostly exporting countries. The practice largely favored these Asian exporters until the bubble burst, starting from July of 1997. And the consequences and lessons now remain Economics and History topics.
