Answer:

12.36%

Explanation:

Given that

Earning before tax and interest = $73,000

Worth Stock = $350,000

Debt = 8.5%

The computation of rate of return is shown below:-

Earning before tax and interest - Worth Stock × Debt

= $73,000 - $350,000 × 8.5%

= $73,000 - $29,750

= $43,250

Return on $52,500

= ($43,250 ÷ $350,000) × $52,500

= $6,488

Return as Percentage = $6,488 ÷ $52,500

= 12.36%
