Explanation / Answer

Solution 1:

Average Equity = Average assets - Average liabilities = $1,500,000 - $300,000 = $1,200,000

Net Income = $200,000

Return on Equity = Net Income / Average shareholder equity = $200,000 / $1,200,000 = 16.7%

Hence option 1 is correct.

Solution 2:

If a firm's payment terms for sales made on account to its customers were 2/10, n30 the number of days' sales in accounts receivable would be expected to be "between 10 and 30 days"

Hence option 1 is correct.
