Answer:

Explanation:

ROE = Net income/total assets

5048/(11708+13109)/2

= 0.4068

= 40.68%

A.

net margin = net profit/sales

= 5048/30674

= 0.1646

asset turnover = sales/average total asset

= 30674/(32898+31389)/2

= 0.954

equity multiplier

average total asset/average equity

= [(32898+31389)/2] / [11708+13109)]/2

= 32143.5/12408.5

= 2.59

DuPont model

ROE = 0.1646 x 0.9542 x 2.59

= 0.4068

= 40.68%

this shows that roe equals roe computed from the first roe I solved

ROA

net income/total assets

= 5048/32898+31389)/2

= 5048/32143.5

= 0.1570

= 15.47%
