Expert Solution
Step 1

1) Margin = Net operating income / sales 

=  $80000/$1000000 x 100

= 8%

   Turnover = Sales / Average operating assets 

 = $ 1000000 /$498000 

= 2.00times

ROI = Margin x turnover 

       = 8% x 2 = 16%

2). If company reduces the average level of inventory by $96000 , average operating  assets of the company will also reduced by $96000 so the new average operating assets

=$498000- $96000

=$402000

Margin = Net operating income / sales 

            =  $80000/$1000000 x 100

            = 8%

Turnover = Sales / Average operating assets 

               = $1000000 / $402000 

               =2.48 times

ROI = Margin x turnover 

       = 8% x 2.48 = 19.84 %

 

Margin 8% % Unchanged
Turnover 2.48   Increase
ROI 19.84 % Increase
