Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Current promised return on debt is

= $53,400 ÷ $45,800 - 1

= 16.60%

And, the expected return on debt is

The expected amount would be

= $53,400 × 30% + $44,000 × 70%

= $16,020 + $30,800

= $46,820

 Now the expected return on debt is

= $46,820 ÷ $45,800 - 1

= 2.23%
