Answer:

Fitness Fanatics

Springfield Club

The return on investment (ROI) = = 21.06%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Sales                                    $ 780,000

Net operating income           $ 17,940

Average operating assets $ 100,000

1. Assume that the manager of the club is able to reduce expenses by $3,120 without any change in sales or average operating assets, the return on investment would be:

= Net operating income/Average operating assets * 100

= ($ 17,940 + $3,120)/$ 100,000 * 100

= 21.06%

b) The return on investment metric measures an entity's financial performance, using the annual returns and average operating assets or initial investment cost.
