Dear sir,
Why 1 company may have a higher ROE than another company simply because it finance the business through loan capital rather than equity capital?
Thanks

Depends on the numbers. You would get numbers in the exam.

If debt financed – lower profit (because of finance cost) and lower equity (less shares in issue).

All I can say.
