Answer:

Option D is correct.

Explanation:

Both company will have same Equity multiplier as total assets and equity are same of both companies. So Option A and B is incorrect.

Option C is also incorrect because there is no difference between the sales and total assets of both companies.

Option D is correct because the return on equity of the company LD is higher as the Net profit which is profit after interest and tax is higher than the profit after interest and tax of the company HD.

ROE = PAIT / Equity

Option E is wrong because when we say ROA is same this means that the operating income is same.

ROA = Operating profit / Total assets

Remember that the operating profit is earnings before interest and tax.
