Maurinko [17]

Answer:

1.08 dollars of sales are generated from every $1 in total assets.

Explanation:

Calculate Current asset from net working capital formula:

Net Working capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

$2,715 = Current Assets - $3,908

Current Assets = $2,715 + $3,908

Current Assets = $6,623

Now calculate Total Assets:

Total Assets = Fixed Asset + Current Assets

Total Assets = $22,407 + $6,623

Total Assets = $29,030

We can calculate dollars' worth of sales are generated from every $1 in total assets by following formula:

Asset turnover ratio = Net Sales / Total Assets

Asset turnover ratio = $31,350 / $29,030 = 1.08
