Answer: please refer to the explanation section

Explanation:

The question is incomplete to calculate Return on investment we need the investment amount (the Purchase price of the new production  capacity acquired), to illustrate how Return on Investment is Calculated we will assume 20000 units of additional capacity were purchased at a price $ 400000

Bing's units = 20000

selling price = $10

Direct Material = $3

Direct labour cost = $5

Total costs =(20000 x $3)  - (20000 x 5) = $160000

Revenue = 20000 x $10 = $200000

Profit = $200000 - $160000 = $40000

Return on Investments

Return on investments = net profit/purchase price

Return on investments = 40000/400000 = 0.1 x 100 = 100%
