To determine if the management should continue with their decision to award the Intensive Care
Division based on its high operating profit, we can calculate the Return on Assets (ROA) for each
division. ROA is a financial ratio that measures how effectively a company is utilizing its assets to
generate profits.
Based on the ROA calculations, the Splint Division has the highest return on assets with 9.8%. Therefore,
if the management wants to award the division with the highest profitability relative to its asset
utilization, they should consider awarding the Splint Division instead of the Intensive Care Division.
Remember, financial ratios provide insights into a company's performance, but it's important to consider
other factors such as market conditions, strategic goals, and potential growth opportunities before
making a final decision.
2. To compute Charlie's Construction Company's return on assets (ROA), we can use the formula:
Dave's debt ratio is 0.5%, which means that his total liabilities make up only a small portion of
his total assets. This indicates that Dave has a low level of debt relative to his assets.
