Module 5 Case 4 The contribution format income statement for WCompany for last year is given below: The company had average operating assets of $2,000,000 during the year. Required: 1. Compute the company's return on investment (ROI) for the period using the ROI formula stated in terms oi margin and turnover. For each of the following questions, indicate whether the margin and turnover will increase, decrease, or remain unchanged as a result of the events described. Consider each question separately (independently), starting in each case from the data used to compute the original ROI in (1) above. 2. Using Lean Production, the company is able to reduce the average level of inventory by $400,000. Sales and profits will remain the same. (The released funds are used to pay off short-term creditors.) 3. The company achieves a cost savings of $32,000 per year by using less costly materials. 4.

HINT: car to the nearest 2 decimals of a %; ma need to - |u_ in numbers if both numerator and denominator move in the same direction (both increase or both decrease). Margin = Turnover = Margin = 3. Turnover = Margin = 4. Turnover = Margin = 5. Turnover = Margin = 6. Turnover = Margin = 7. Turnover =
