Answer:

Asset turnover 1.42

Return on assets 0.39%

Explanation:

Here, we are asked to calculate the asset turn over and the return on assets.

Mathematically;

Asset turnover = Net sales/Average total assets

Net sales = $35,497

average total assets = (25,633+24,244)/2 = 24938.5

Asset turnover = 35,497/24938.5 = 1.42

The return on assets can also be calculated mathematically.

mathematically, return on assets = Net income/Average total assets

Net income = $98

Average total assets = 24,938.5 from above

= 0.0039 or 0.39%

Answer:

Asset Turnover = $35,497 ÷ $ 24,938.5 = 1.42

Asset Turnover = $35,497 ÷ $ 24,938.5 = 1.42

  • Return on Assets is a ratio that shows the percentage how profitable a company's assets are in generating revenue.

Formula: Net Income ÷ Total Average Assets.

Return on Assets: $98 ÷ 24,938.5 = 0.39%
