Answer:

ROIC is 9.26%

ROE is 12.63%

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Total assets = $1,080,000

Total liabilities = Current liabilities + Debt + Common equity = $1,080,000

D/(D + E) = 0.40

D / ($1,080,000 - 100,000) = 0.40

D = $392,000

Common equity = Total liabilities - Current liabilities - Debt = $1,080,000 - 100,000 - 392,000= $588,000

BEP = 0.15 = EBIT/TA

= EBIT/$1,080,000

Therefore, EBIT = $162,000

In order to calculate the ROIC we would have to make the following calculation:

ROIC = [EBIT(1 – T)]/(D + E) = [$151,200(0.6)]/($392,000 + $588,000) = 9.26%

ROIC is 9.26%

To calculate the ROE we would have to calculate first net income from income statement as follows:

EBIT=$151,200

Less: Interest ($392,000 x 7%) 27,440

EBT= 123,760

Less: Tax 40% 49,504

Net Income= 74,256

Therefore, ROE = NI/E = $74,256/$588,000 = 12.63%

ROE is 12.63%

Elenna [48]

Answer:

These are the options for the question:

market-based

communist

command

laissez-faire

mixed

And this is the correct answer:

mixed

Explanation:

A mixed economy is an economy that either:

  • Mixes state intervention with a free-market economy.
  • Has some sectors of the economy run in market-based style, and other sectors in a planned-style.
  • Has coexistence of public enterprises and private enterprises.

In the question, we have an example of a mixed economy because in the energy sector (a crucial sector in any economy), there is one public company competing against private companies.

The economy becomes even more mixed when the government lowers the tax rates of the private companies, so that both the public firm and the private firms compete under the same conditions.
