1) Computation of Return on Assets (ROA):

Return on Assets (ROA) = Net income / Average total assets

ROA McDonalds = 5,790.65 / 32,414 = 17.86%

ROA Yum brands = 1,626 / 5,382 = 30.21%

 

Workings:

McDonalds = 5,192 + (921*(1-35%)) = 5,790.65

Yum brands = 5,382 + (440*(1-35%)) = 1,626

 

 

2)

  Profit Margin(PM) * Asset Turnover (AT) = ROA
McDonalds 25.38%   0.704   17.87%
Yum brands 27.66%   1.092   30.20%
           
           
  Profit Margin(PM) * Asset Turnover (AT) = ROA
McDonalds =5790.65/22820   =22820/32414   =25.38%*0.704
Yum brands =1626/5878   =5878/5382   =27.66%*1.092
