    7.52689%

    Explanation:

    Ervin Company:To break even with an 93% success rate, Ervin will need to recoup

    $1/0.93=$1.0752689.

    Hence:

    Winthrop should charge a return greater than ($1.0752689/$1.00) - 1

    = ($1.0752689) - 1

    =0.0752689*100

    =7.52689%

    Therefore th eloan rate Winthrop Enterprises should charge Ervin Company for loans will be 7.52689%
