Answer:
The return on assets (ROA) of Excandesco Company is 10.921%
Explanation:
Return on assets (ROA) helps an investor see how much after-tax profit a company gained for each dollar in assets, is calculated by formula:
ROA = Net Income/ Total Assets
The total debt ratio of Excandesco was .33:
Total debt ratio = Total Debts/ Total Assets = 0.33
Total debts = 0.33 x Total Assets
From the accounting equation: Total Assets = Total debts + Total Equity
Total Equity = 0.67 x Total Assets
Excandesco Company had return on equity (ROE) of 16.3 percent.
ROE = Net income/ Equity
Net income = ROE x Equity = 16.3% x 0.67 x Total Assets = 0.10921 x Total Assets.
ROA = Net Income/ Average Total Assets = (0.10921 x Total Assets)/Total Assets = 0.10921 = 10.921%
