Answer:

c. Erie s ROE will remain the same

Explanation:

As the return on asset is calcualte using the asset figure it will not change with a financial leverage measurement.

As the financial leverage acts in the composition of other side of the accounting (assets = liabilitis + equity) it will change the return on equity, the debt ratio and other metric related to this side but, not the return on assets.

Answer:

There is a loss of 18,000

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the amount of boot in this transaction.

We proceed as follows;

We must identify that to buy one asset, we exchanged one asset with another

Mathematically;

loss or gain = asset given up - Discount received in exchange

From the question we identify the following;

value of asset given up = 225,000 - 195,000 = 30,000

Discount received in exchange = 12,000

Thus, loss or gain is

= 30,000 - 12,000

So, there's a loss of 18,000
