• Option 1:

o Total amount at the end of two years: $1,150

• Option 2:
o Loan $500 to a friend for one year and receive $600
o Deposit $500 (left over) in a back at 3% for two years:
uv
$500(1.03)(1.03) = $530.45

o Deposit $600 received from your friend at 3% per year for a year:

$600(1.03) = $618
Total amount at the end of two years:
ia
$530.45 + $618 = $1,148.45
These two options are about the same. But considering the trustworthiness, you
could go with Option 2.

(b) Company A has performed better in terms of profitability.

(c) If two companies were merged, the impact on the results of ROE could be
positive under the situation where the Company A leads the acquisition using a
stock swap instead of issuing new stocks for M&A cost. If Company A uses a
pl
stock swap, the stock value wouldn’t be decreased in terms of scarcity.

Inventory turnover ratio (2021) = Sales/Average inventory balance

Inventory turnover ratio (2022) = 15.6 times

This ratio shows how many times the inventory of a firm is sold and replaced over
a specific period. From the data, Metronix was holding more stocks of inventory
than last year; having more inventories on stock is unproductive.
