On January 1, 2021, the general ledger of Grand Finale Fireworks includes the following account balances: I need help with the analysis part. Thank you!

first part

Return on equity = net income / equity =

net income = total revenue - expenses = $66,500 - $42,700 (salaries) - $6,900 (utilities) - $8,000 (supplies) - $1,675 (depreciation) - $2,700 (taxes) = $4,525

equity = $153,200 (Dec. 31 balance) + $42,000 (new stocks issued) - $20,000 (treasury stocks) - $3,620 (dividends) + 17,600 (treasury stocks sold) + $4,525 (net income) = $193,705

ROE = $4,525 / $193,705 = 2.34%

The company is less profitable than other companies in the same industry.

second part

total stocks outstanding = 18,100

third part

EPS for January = $4,525 / 18,100 = $0.25

EPS for January is higher than last year's average

i think the answer would be b hope this
