    11.11%, higher than industry's average

    Explanation:

    The cash return on assets (ROA) ratio is used to compare how the company performs with relation to its direct competitors in the same industry.

    the formula to calculate ROA = cash flow from operations : total average assets

    ROA = $50,000 / [ ($400,000 + $500,000) / 2] = $50,000 / $450,000 = 11.11%

    Since Tech Track's ROA is 11.11%, it is higher than the industry's average, so that mean that it manages its cash flows more efficiently than their average competitors.
