Answer:

Alyeska Services Company

1. Margin

2. Turnover

= 48.61%

3. The Return on Investment (ROI)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Sales = $ 17,500,000

Net operating income = $ 6,000,000

Average operating assets = $ 36,000,000

1. Margin = Net operating income/Sales * 100

= $6,000,000/$17,500,000 * 100

= 34.29%

2. Turnover = Sales/Average Operating assets

= $17,500,000/$36,000,000

= 48.61%

3. The Return on Investment (ROI) = Margin/Turnover

= 34.29%/48.61%

= 7.05%
