Firm A and Firm B have the same total assets, ROA and profit margin. However, Frim B has a higher debt ratio and interest expens

SashulF [63]

Answer:

A.) Firm B must have a higher ROE than first A.

Explanation:

Debt ratio is defined as percentage of a company's assets that is made up of debt and so it is calculated as a ratio of debt to assets of a company.

Interest expense is the amount that is paid to service a loan.

This implies that company B has higher loan portfolio than Company A.

Considering the accounting formula

Equity= Asset- Debt

So an increase in debt will result in a decrease in equity.

Return on equity= Net income/Equity

It follows that as debt increases and equity reduces, the ROE will increase since a shrink in the ROE denominator (Equity) will lead to an increase in the ratio.
