Calculate the company’s 2017 fixed-asset turnover ratio

Respuesta :

Answer:

14

Explanation:

Asset turnover is the ratio of revenue to average assets of a company. It is a financial indicator that shows how much revenue a company generates in an accounting period for each $ 1 invested in assets (fixed asset in this case).

Mathematically,

Fixed Asset turnover = Revenue / Average fixed assets

where average fixed assets

= (Opening balance + closing balance)/2

Average fixed asset

= ($ 521 + $ 466)/2

= $493.5 million

2017 fixed-asset turnover ratio

= $ 6,910/$493.5

= 14

It means that the company generated $14 for every $1 invested in fixed assets during the period.
