Answer: A) company hd has a lower ROA than company ld.

Explanation:

Company HD has more debt than Company LD which is why they have a higher interest expense. Interest expense is deducted from revenue to reach net profit so Company HD will have a lower profit than Company LD.

Return on Assets is calculated by dividing Net Income by Total assets. With Company HD having a lower net income, it will also have a lower ROA as a result seeing as the numerator will be lower than that of company LD.

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Here, in this question, we are asked to determine the decrease in notes payable that peachtree should record in the first year.

To determine this, we proceed as follows;

Interest payment for the first year = 30000*7% i.e 2100

Principal amount paid = Total amount paid - Interest amount

= 7317 -2100 i.e 5217

Notes payable should be reduced by 5217

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

$102,348.034

Explanation:

It is a simple problem of Compound Interest, we have to find the Principle amount invested.

Given:

Future value (F) = $260,000

Rate(R) = 6% = 6/100 = 0.06

Number of years (n) = 16 years

Initial deposit (C) = ?

Calculation:

Future value (F) = C\times (1+R)^n\\Future value (F) = C (1+0.06)^{16}\\260,000 = C(2.54035168)

$260,000/2.54035168 = C

$102,348.034 = C

So, Initial cash Deposit = $102,348.034
