The computations are shown below:

Explanation:

Return On Assets = Net income ÷ Average Total Assets × 100

where,

Average of Assets =  (Beginning Total Assets + Ending Total Assets) ÷ 2

= ($75,183 + $116,371) ÷ 2

= $191,554 ÷ 2

= $95,777

So, the return on investment is  

=$25,922 ÷ $95,777 × 100

= 27.06%

Profit Margin = Net income ÷ Sales × 100

= $25,922 ÷ $108,249 × 100

= 23.95%

Assets Turnover = Sales ÷ Average of  Total Assets

= $108,249 ÷$95,777

= 1.13
