Risk aversion is the behavior in someone when they are exposed to uncertainty and are unsure of something due to being uncertain about it.  

In this case, reluctant for taking changes when making investment best describes risk aversion from an economics stand point. If someone isn't sure the return on investment they would get from investing or the risks associated with investing in something, they are more hesitant to do that.

= 9.6%

Asset turnover = Sales/Total Assets

= $20,710,000/$9,900,000 = 2.1 times

Return on equity = Net Income/Total Equity * 100
