Explanation:

The return on equity (ROE) is the return the company earns over the shareholders equity. It is a profitability measure in relation to a business's equity. The formula for ROE is,

ROE = Net Income / Shareholder's Equity

The return on assets, on the other hand, is the return earned by a company over the total assets employed. It is a profitability measure in relation to the total assets of a business. The formula for ROA is,

ROA = Net Income / Average Total assets

Where,

Average total assets = (Total assets at start + Total assets at end) / 2

For 2017:

ROE = 11000 / 31000  =  0.3548 or 35.48%

Average total assets = (105000 + 125000) / 2   = $115000

ROA = 11000 / 115000   =  0.09565 or 9.565%
