Question

The following information relates to last year's operations at the Legumes Division of Gervani Corporation: Minimum required rate of return 12% Return on investment (ROI) 15% Sales $ 900,000 Turnover (on operating assets) 3 times What was the Legume Division's net operating income last year

Answer 1

Answer: $45000

Explanation:

Firstly, the operating asset will be calculated which will be:

Operating asset = Sales / Turnover

= 900,000/3

Operating assets = $300,000

Then, the net operating income will be: Return on investment × Operating assets

Net operating income = 300,000 × 15%

= 300,000*0.15

= $45,000

Therefore, Legume Division's net operating income last year is $45000
