Answer:
2.41%
Explanation:
The difference between the two firms' ROEs is shown below:-
Particulars Firm HD Firm LD
Assets $200 Debt ratio 50% Debt ratio 30%
EBIT $40 Interest rate 12% Interest rate 10%
Tax rate 35%
Debt $100 $60
Interest $12 $6
($100 × 12%) ($60 × 10%)
Taxable income $28 $36
($40- $12) ($40 - $6)
Net income $18.2 $22.1
$28 × (1 - 0.35) $36 × (1 - 0.35)
Equity $100 $140
($200 - $100) ($200 - $60)
ROE 18.2% 15.79%
($18.2 ÷ $100) ($22.1 ÷ $140)
Taxable income = EBIT - Interest
Net income = Income - Taxable income
Equity = Assets - Debt
ROE = Net income ÷ Equity
Difference in ROE = ROE Firm HD - ROE Firm LD
= 18.2% - 15.79%
= 2.41%
So, for computing the difference between the two firms' ROEs we simply deduct the ROE firm LD from ROE firm HD.
Answer:
Book value= $51,875
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Purchase price= $80,000
Salvage value= $5,000
Useful life= 8 years
<u>First, we need to calculate the annual depreciation under the straight-line method:</u>
Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)
Annual depreciation= (80,000 - 5,000) / 8
Annual depreciation= $9,375
<u>Now, we can determine the book value at the end of 2019:</u>
Book value= purchase price - accumulated depreciation
Book value= 80,000 - (9,375*3)
Book value= $51,875
Answer: $40,000
Explanation:
Hello. Your question was incomplete as it lacked the balance sheet in question. Luckily I found it and have now attached it.
The question states that the central bank has set a required reserve ratio of 10%. This means that 10% of the deposits at the bank are not to be touched so they cannot loan past 90% of the deposits.
The bank has only $60,000 remaining to loan out as they will not sell their securities.
So we will calculate how much they can loan out thus,
= 60,000 - (200,000 * 10%) to find out what amount cannot be touched
= 60,000 - 20,000
= $40,000
The maximum amount of additional loans the bank in Jamestown can undertake is $40,000.
