Explanation / Answer

Asset turnover = Sales / total Assets

Normally we consider average total assets, but here i am considering only that year assets as base

2017 Sales = 18600

2017 Total Assets = 90000

2017 Asset turnover ratio = 18600 / 90000 = 0.21

2016 Sales = 15200

2016 Total Assets = 66800

2016 Asset turnover ratio = 15200 / 66800 = 0.23
