The fiscal 2016 financial statements of nike inc. shows net operating profit margin (nopm) of 11.4%, net operating asset turnover (noat) of 3.83, return on equity of 30.1%, and adjusted return on assets of 17.1%. what is the company's nonoperating return?

-13.562%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Net operating profit margin (NOPM) = 11.4%

Net operating asset turnover (NOAT) = 3.83

Return on equity = 30.1%

Adjusted return on assets = 17.1%

Now,

Return on equity = Nonoperating Return + Return in net operating assets

or

Nonoperating Return = Return on equity - Return in net operating assets

Also,

Return in net operating assets = NOAT × NOPM

or

= 3.83 × 11.4%

= 43.66%

therefore,

Nonoperating Return = 30.1% - 43.66%

= 30.1% - 43.662%

= -13.562%
