Answer:

B) Company HD has more net income.

Explanation:

The total debt to capital ratio is calculated by dividing total liabilities by the sum of total shareholders' equity + total debt:

  • debt to capital ratio = total debt / (total debt + total equity)

Since company HD uses more debt to finance its operations, its net income will be lower since it has to pay more interests, but its ROE will be higher since equity is much lower also. Companies that use a lot of financial leverage are more risky but at the same time can generate higher returns to their owners.

David is buying a new car for $21,349.00. He plans to make a down payment of $3,000.00. If he's to
marshall27 [118]

Answer: (D) 5.90%

Explanation: David is going to buy a new car at $21,349.

The down payment is $3,000.

Loan amount (Present value) = $21,349 - $3,000

Loan amount (Present Value) = $18,349

Installment amount (pmt) = $352

As the payment is made monthly (12 months in a year),

Number of payments = 5 * 12

Number of payments = 60

Using the rate option in excel,

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv,type)

Insert the variables into the option, we get

=rate(60,352,-18349)

By inserting the above formula in excel we get,

Rate = 0.47%

Rate of 0.47% is monthly, to get APR

APR = (1+monthly rate)^12 - 1

APR = (1+0.0047)^12 - 1

APR = (1.0047)^12 -1

APR = 1.0586 - 1

APR = 0.0586

APR = 5.86% or 5.90%

Therefore the correct option is 5.90%.

solong [7]
Exercising doesn't mean you have to spend hours in the gym. Exercises can be done at the comforts of your home too, and there's plenty of exercise available, especially for those who have less time to do so. Just like for example, waiting time. While you are waiting for your clothes in the washing machine to finish, you may use this time to do some basic exercises such as running in place, jumping jacks or carrying weights.
