Respuesta :

Answer:

A) 7.0%

Explanation:

Average total Assets = (Opening Assets + Closing Assets) / 2

Average total Assets = (200,000 + 300,000) / 2

Average total Assets = $250,000

Formula for return on assets:

Return on assets = Net Income /Average total Assets

Return on assets = 17,500 / 250,000

Return on assets = 0.07

Return on assets = 7%

Correct option is A) 7.0%
