Answer:

a. 0.557 times

b. 8.72%

c. 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Asset turnover = Net sales ÷ Average total assets

We will calculate the average total asset first

Average total asset = [Beginning total assets - ending total assets)] / 2

= [(930.9 + 920.1)] / 2

= 925.5

Asset turnover = 515.7/925.5

= 0.557 times

b. Return on assets = Net income/Average total assets

= 80.7/925.5

= 0.087196

= 0.087196 × 100

= 8.72%

c. Profit margin on sales = Net income/Net sales

= 80.7/515.7

= 0.16
