Answer:

D)-26%

Explanation:

The computation of the realized return on your investment is shown below:

= (Rate of return × total investment) - (interest paid)

= (-10% × $20,000) - (6% × $1,000)

= (-$2000 - $600)

= -$2,600

Now the Rate of return is

=(-$2,600 ÷ $10,000)

= -26%

hence, the realized return on your investment is -26%

Therefore the correct option is D.

=$58,800

Annual Depreciation expense= $58,800
