Answer:
Services the borrower did shop for, that the buyer may find on his own.
Explanation:
Services such as a pest inspection or title insurance are services that the buyer of a house usually want, but are not mandatory for them to purchase. Therefore usually buyers must search for them on their own since they are not required by a bank.
They are different than services that a lender requires like home insurance, which a buyer must purchase.

Answer:
22%
Explanation:
Net income = Annual cash flow - Depreciation
Net income = 24350 - (80,000-5,000 / 5)
Net income = 24350 - 15,000
Net income = $9350
Average investment = Beg. value + End. Value / 2
Average investment = 80,000 + 5,000 / 2
Average investment = $42,500
Annual rate of return = Net income / Average investment * 100
Annual rate of return = $9350 / $42,500 * 100
Annual rate of return = 0.22 * 100
Annual rate of return = 22%
Answer:
2.41%
Explanation:
The difference between the two firms' ROEs is shown below:-
Particulars Firm HD Firm LD
Assets $200 Debt ratio 50% Debt ratio 30%
EBIT $40 Interest rate 12% Interest rate 10%
Tax rate 35%
Debt $100 $60
Interest $12 $6
($100 × 12%) ($60 × 10%)
Taxable income $28 $36
($40- $12) ($40 - $6)
Net income $18.2 $22.1
$28 × (1 - 0.35) $36 × (1 - 0.35)
Equity $100 $140
($200 - $100) ($200 - $60)
ROE 18.2% 15.79%
($18.2 ÷ $100) ($22.1 ÷ $140)
Taxable income = EBIT - Interest
Net income = Income - Taxable income
Equity = Assets - Debt
ROE = Net income ÷ Equity
Difference in ROE = ROE Firm HD - ROE Firm LD
= 18.2% - 15.79%
= 2.41%
So, for computing the difference between the two firms' ROEs we simply deduct the ROE firm LD from ROE firm HD.
Answer:
<u>Predatory pricing</u>
Explanation:
A "predator" refers to an animal who survives by "preying" on other animals.
Predatory pricing in a similar sense refers to that form of excessively low pricing which in a way consumes other firms by taking away their share of industry revenues. Such form of pricing is considered illegal and is against healthy competition.
Such pricing eliminates competitors from the market and gradually leads to emergence of a monopoly i.e supremacy of a single firm in the whole industry and thus considered an illegal practice.
In the given case, the retail chain can be alleged to have followed predatory pricing which is substantiated by the fact that it cuts it's prices excessively i.e even below cost , thereby forcing smaller companies to exit the industry.
