Brennen Solis · Answer 1

(a) As per Du-Pont equation:

Return on Assets (ROA) = Net profit margin * Total assets turnover

9.8% = 12.25% * total asset turnover

Total asset turnover = 0.098/0.1225 = 0.8

Total asset turnover = 0.80

(b) As per Du-Pont equation:

ROE = Net profit margin * total asset turnover 8 * Equity Multiplier

18.25% = 12.25%*0.8 * Equity Multiplier

Equity multiplier = 0.1825 / (0.1225*0.8) = 1.86

Equity multiplier = 1.86 times
