Elastic demand means that consumers are sensitive to price and that increased prices can lead to lower sales. There isn't enough information to fully answer this question. We don't know how elastic the demand is. If the demand is only slightly elastic, the increased price and lower demand could still equal higher profits.

Last year Ann Arbor Corp had $250,000 of assets (which equals total invested capital), $305,000 of sales, $20,000 of net income,
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

8.32%

Explanation:

The computation of  cost reduction improve the ROE is shown below:-

For computing the increase in ROE first we need to follow some steps which is here below:-

Debt = capital × Debt

= $250,000 × 37.5%

= $93,750

Equity = Assets - Debt

= $250,000 - $93,750

= $156,250

New ROE = New Net income ÷ Equity

= $33,000 ÷ $156,250

= 21.12%

Old ROE = Old Net income ÷ Equity

= $20,000 ÷ $156,250

= 12.8%

Increase in ROE = New ROE- Old ROE

= 21.12% - 12.8%

= 8.32%

IrinaK [193]

  1. FV = PV Times (1 + r)^n
  2. FV = PV + (PV Times r Times n)
  3. False
  4. False
  5. True
  6. Laura should invest in investment P

Investment = L  FV = $66,485.49  Make this investment? No

Investment = M  FV = $59,400  Make this investment? No

Investment = P  FV = $77,318.37  Make this investment? Yes

Explanation:

  1. Compound interest: FV = PV Times (1 + r)^n
  2. Simple interest: FV = PV + (PV Times r Times n)
  3. The process of earning compound interest allows a depositor or investor to earn interest on any interest earned in prior periods. False
  4. After the end of the second year and all other factors remaining equal, a future value based on compound interest will never exceed the future value based on simple interest. False
  5. All other factors being equal, both the simple interest and the compound interest methods will accrue the same amount of earned interest by the end of the first year. True

Investment = L

Interest rate and method = 5% compound interest

Expected Future Value, FV = PV (1 + r)^n

FV = 45000 (1 + 0.05)^8

FV = 45000 * (1.05)^8

FV = 45000 * 1.477455 = $66,485.49

Make this investment? Yes / No

Investment = M

Interest rate and method = 4% simple interest

Expected Future Value, FV = PV + (PV * r * n)

FV = 45000 + (45000 * 0.04 * 8)

FV = 45000 + 14400 = $59,400

Make this investment? Yes / No

Investment = P

Interest rate and method = 7% compound interest

Expected Future Value, FV = PV (1 + r)^n

FV = 45000 (1 + 0.07)^8

FV = 45000 * (1.07)^8

FV = 45000 * 1.718186 = $77,318.37

Make this investment? Yes / No

Since she can only make one investment during the eight-year investment period, Laura should invest in investment P
