Answer:

ROA= 10%  TA = 2.000.000  

ROA=12%  TA         = 1.666.667

Reducction in assets    333.333

ROA = (net income / sales) x (sales / Total Assets)

ROA = Margin x Average total assets

10%=5%X(4000000/TA) 2,0 = 4000000/TA

12%=5%X(4000000/TA)  2,4 = 4000000/TA

ROA= 10%  TA = 2.000.000

ROA=12%  TA = 1.666.667

jasenka [17]

Answer:

B net income is overstated, assets are overstated, and stockholders' equity is overstated

Explanation:

The movement in the balance of inventory at the start and end of a period is as a result of sales and purchases. While sales reduces the balance in inventory, purchases increases the balance. This may be expressed mathematically as

Opening balance + purchases - cost of goods sold = closing balance

Hence, where ending inventory balance is overstated, cost of goods sold is understated. When cost of goods sold is understated, gross and net incomes are overstated. Hence owner's equity is overstated and asset overstated.
