Answer:

Queensland 14.7%

New South Wales is 24.0%

Explanation:

This is a case of modified  return on investment since the question was specific that the  return on investment  should in terms margin and assets turnover.

The first task would be to compute margin and turnover  whereas the return on investment  would be  the multiples of both performance measures.

Margin =operating income/sales

Asset turnover=sales/average operating assets

operating income/sales*sales/average operating assets=operating income/average assets

This question also require proofing the above formula as I have done.

                                 Margin                  Assets turnover                      ROI

Queensland$82,320/$784,000=10.5%$784,000/$560,000=1.4     14.7%

South Wales$118,800/$1,485,000=8% $1,485,000/$495,000=         24.0%

R0I=margin*assets turnover

Queensland=10.5%*1.4=14.7%

New south sales=8%*3=24%

White raven [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

given data

necklace he liked = $139

pearl necklace originally = $173.75

sale for = 20% off

reduced the price = $139

solution

  • Rodrigo is subject to readymade bias. This bias refers to how people’s decisions affect situations, words, or settings. Although both stores have the same price, Pearl’s own stores create a relative factor
  • It showed a high base price and a 20% discount, which made Rodrigo feel like he was making a deal, so he was more inclined to buy the necklace and not at the Murphy jewelry store.
