(round answers to 1 decimal place, e. g. 1.6 or 1.6%.)

Given:

net income of $13.69 million

net revenue of $76.24 million

assets are $10.16 million at the beginning of the year

assets are $15.17 million at the end of the year

Formula:

Asset Turnover = Revenue/Net Assets

To get the Net Assets, add the total number of assets at the beginning of the year and at the end of the year, then divide it into 2.

Net Assets = ($10.16 million + $15.17 million)/2

Net Assets = $12.665 million

Then substitute the necessary values

Asset Turnover = $76.24/$12.665

a.)    The asset turnover is equal to 6.019 or 6.0%

Formula:

Profit Margin = Net Income/Net Sales (Revenue)

Profit Margin = $13.69 million/$76.24 million

Profit Margin = 0.179 or 0.2%

b.)    The profit margin is equal to 0.2%
