Respuesta :

Answer:

12%

Explanation:

Given that,

Net income = $50,880

Asset at the beginning = 362,000

Asset at the end = 486,000

Average total assets:

= (Asset at the beginning + Asset at the end) ÷ 2

= (362,000 + 486,000) ÷ 2

= $424,000

Therefore,

ROA = Net income ÷ Average total assets

        = $50,880  ÷ $424,000

        = 0.12 or 12%

Therefore, the Matured Water Services' ROA for the month of October is 12%.
