Answer: d. 3.82%

Explanation:

ROE = Net Income / Equity so Equity need to be ascertained.

1.75 = Total Assets/ Total Equity

Total Equity = Total Assets/ 1.75

1.33 = Revenue / Total Assets

Total Assets = Revenue / 1.33

= 320,000/1.33

= $240,601.50

Total Equity = 240,601.50/1.75

= $137,486.57

Old ROE = 10,549/ 137,489.57

= 0.07672582

= 7.67%

New ROE = (10,549 + 5,250) / 137,489.57

= 0.11491053466

= 11.49%

Difference = 11.49 - 7.67

= 3.82%
