Explanation / Answer

RETURN ON ASSETS

= NET INCOME / AVERAGE TOTAL ASSSETS

AVERAGE TOTAL ASSETS = (OPENNING ASSETS +CLOSING ASSETS) / 2

PRINCE COMPANY

OPENNING CURRENT ASSETS = $581083

OPENNING PLANT ASSETS = $930000

TOTAL OPPENING ASSETS = $1511083

-------------------------------------------------------------------

CLOSEING CURRENT ASSETS = $606314

CLOSEING PLANT ASSETS = $979848

TOTAL CLOSEING ASSETS = $1586162

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

AVERAGE ASSETS = ($1511083 + $1586162) / 2

= $1548622.5

RETURN ON ASSETS = $430400 / $1548622.5

   = 0.2779 OR 27.8%

KING COMPANY

OPENNING CURRENT ASSETS = $147809

OPENNING PLANT ASSETS = $234010

TOTAL OPPENING ASSETS = $381819

-------------------------------------------------------------------

CLOSEING CURRENT ASSETS = $155005

CLOSEING PLANT ASSETS = $259894

TOTAL CLOSEING ASSETS = $414899

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

AVERAGE ASSETS = ($381819 + $414899) / 2

= $398359

RETURN ON ASSETS = $185000 / $398359

   = 0.4644 OR 46.4%

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RETURN ON STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY

ROE = NET INCOME / AVERAGE SHARE HOLDERS EQUITY

AVERAGE SHARE HOLDERS EQUITY = (OPENNING SHARE HOLDERS EQUITY + CLOSSING SHARE HOLDERS EQUITY) / 2

PRINCE COMPANY

OPENNING COMMON STOCK = $930000

OPENNING RETAINNED EARNNINGS = $272667

TOTAL OPPENING EQUITY = $1202667

-------------------------------------------------------------------

CLOSEING COMMON STOCK = $930000

CLOSEING RETAINNED EARNNINGS = $320776

TOTAL CLOSEING EQUITY = $1250776

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

AVERAGE EQUITY = ($1202667 + $1250776) / 2

= $1226721.5

RETURN ON EQUITY = $430400 / $1226721.5

   = 0.3508 OR 35.1%

KING COMPANY

OPENNING COMMON STOCK = $223200

OPENNING RETAINNED EARNNINGS = $55796

TOTAL OPPENING EQUITY = $278996

-------------------------------------------------------------------

CLOSEING COMMON STOCK = $223200

CLOSEING RETAINNED EARNNINGS = $70859

TOTAL CLOSEING EQUITY = $294059

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

AVERAGE EQUITY = ($278996 + $294059) / 2

= $286527.5

RETURN ON EQUITY = $185000 / $286527.5

   = 0.6456 OR 64.6%
