Answer:

22%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine First Union Bank’s ROE for 2021

First step

Debt ratio = 0.50 = $2.0m / Total assets

Second step

Total assets = $2.0m / 0.50

Total assets = $4.000m

Third step

Total equity = $4.000m - $2.0m

Total equity = 2.000m

Now let determine the ROE

ROE = $440000 / $2.000m

ROE=22.00%

Therefore First Union Bank’s ROE for 2021 is 22.00%
