Answer:

Explanation:

45% efficiency of burning natural gas on 120 million BTU = 0.45 X 120 million = 54 million BTU

6% energy loss in electricity transmission and distribution = 0.06 X 54 million = 3.24 million

Utilized energy at a home, that is, 94% = 94 X 32.4/6 = 50.76 million

2% energy loss in pipeline and distribution = 0.02 X 54 million = 1.08 million

Utilized energy at a home , that is, 98% = 98 X 1.08 million = 52.92 million.

Last year Altman Corp. had $205,000 of assets, $303,500 of sales, $18,250 of net income, and a debt-to-total-assets ratio of 41%
Monica [59]

Answer:

5.20%

Explanation:

The computation of the reduction in assets improve the ROE is shown below:

But before that we need to calculate the following things

Equity ratio = 100 - 41 = 59%

Total equity = $205,000 × 59% = $120,950

ROE = Net income ÷ Total equity

       = $18,250 ÷ $120,950

       = 15.08%

Again, Total equity = $152,500 × 59% = $89,975

ROE = Net income ÷ Total equity

        = $18,250 ÷  $89,975

        = 20.28%

Now ROE improved by

= 20.28% - 15.08%

= 5.20%

This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options
