Respuesta :

Answer: 0.22

Explanation: Return on total assets is calculated by dividing net income or operating income from average total assets. It is a profitability ratio which is used by analysts to evaluate the ability of the firm to generate revenue from the given level of assets it have.

[tex]=\:\frac{operating\:income}{Average\:total\:assets}[/tex]

where,

[tex]Average\:total\:assets=\frac{410,000+\:440,000}{2}[/tex]

= $425,000

Now,putting the values into equation :-

[tex]=\:\frac{92,000}{425,000}[/tex]

= 0.22
