Answer 1

Answer:

The fixed asset turnover ratio is closest to 3.62.

Explanation:

The fixed asset turnover ratio can be calculated using the following formula:

Fixed asset turnover ratio = Net sales revenue / Average fixed assets …….. (1)

Where:

Net sales revenue = $1,420,000

Average fixed assets = (Beginning balance of fixed assets + Ending balance of fixed assets) / 2 = ($378,000 + $406,000) / 2 = $392,000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Fixed asset turnover ratio = $1,420,000 / $392,000 = 3.62

Therefore, the fixed asset turnover ratio is closest to 3.62.
