Answer:
40%
Explanation:
Total assets. $240,000
Less total liabilities ($130,000)
$110,000
Less common stock ($24,000)
Retained earnings at end $86,0000
Less Retained earnings at the beginning ($29,000)
Addition to retained earnings $57,000
Add dividends $6,400
Net profit earned $63,400
Add expenses $94,000
Revenue. $157,400
Therefore, company's net profit margin expressed as a percentage = Net profit earned / Revenue
= (63,400/157,400) × 100
= 40%
