Answer 1

Answer:

1. Margin = 8%

2. Turnover = $7,500,000

3. Return on Investment = 12%

Explanation:

Sales for the year = $7,500,000

Net Operating Income = $600,000

Average Operating Assets = $5,000,000

1. Therefore, Margin = ( Net operating Income/Total Sales ) $\times$ 100 = 8%

2. Turnover = Sales for the period = $7,500,000

3. Return on Investment = Net Income/Average Operating assets

= $600,000/$5,000,000 = 12%
