Answer:
0.1125 or 11.25% for each firm
Explanation:
Given that,
Each has $10 million in invested capital,
$1.5 million of EBIT
25% federal-plus-state tax bracket
ROIC for LL:
= [EBIT × (1 - tax rate)] ÷ invested capital
= [1.5 × (1 - 25%)] ÷ 10
= 0.1125 or 11.25%
ROIC for HL
= [EBIT × (1 - tax rate)] ÷ invested capital
= [1.5 × (1 - 25%)] ÷ 10
= 0.1125 or 11.25%
Therefore, the return on invested capital (ROIC) for each firm is 11.25%
