    The divisional net operating income is $20,480

    Explanation:

    In order to calculate the net income from the return on investment formula which is net income divided by average operating assets, the value of operating assets needs to be determined using asset turnover ratio.

    Asset turnover = sales/average operating assets

    asset turnover is 4 times

    sales is $640,000

    average operating assets is unknown

    4=$640,000/average operating assets

    average operating assets=$640,000/4

    average operating assets=$160,000

    Hence we can now determine net income from ROI formula:

    return on investment=net income/average operating assets

    return on investment is 12.8%

    net income is unknown

    average operating assets is $160,000

    12.8%=net income/160,000

    net income=160000*12.8%=$20,480
