    Sales = $23.8 million

    Total equity = $31.3 million

    Total debt = $16.7 million

    Profit margin = 8% = 0.08

    Return of assets = ?

    First we calculate the total assets:

    Total assets = Total debt + Total equity

    = $16.7 million + $31.3 million = $48 million

    Now find net income by using this formula:

    Profit margin = Net income / Sales

    Net income = Profit Margin * Sales = 0.08 x 23,800,000 = $1,904,000 Now calculate Return of assets: Return on assets = Net income / Total assets = $1,904,000 / 48,000,000

    Return on assets = 3.967%
