Corporate Finance Q105

0. Asparagus Inc. and Supras Inc. have the same assets, revenue and operating income but Asparagus is more highly leveraged relative to Supras. Which of the following statements is least likely correct?

  • Option : B
  • Explanation : A is a true statement because higher leverage implies a greater interest expense and hence a lower net income. C is true because both companies have the same revenue and operating income. With similar assets, Asparagus has more leverage which means equity is lower. Hence ROE is likely to be higher, not lower, relative to Supras.
