Expert Solution

Basic Earning Power (BEP) = Earnings before interest and taxes / Total assets

Earnings before interest and taxes= Net income + Taxes + Interest

= $435,000 + $435,000*25/ 60 + $134,850

= $435,000 + $181,250 + $134,850

= $787,500

Total assets = Net income / ROA

= 435,000 / 10%

= $4,350,000

Basic Earning Power (BEP) = $787,500 / $4,350,000

= 0.1810*100

= 18.10%.

2.ROE= Net income / Equity

Equity= 60%*Total assets

= 60%*$4,350,000

= $2,610,000

                                                                                                                                    

ROE= $435,000 / $2,610,000

  = 0.1667*100

= 16.67%.

3.ROIC = NOPAT / Invested Capital

= EBIT*(1 - tax) / (Total assets - Accounts payables and accruals)

= $787,500*(1 - 0.25) / ( $4,350,000 - $1,050,000)

= $590,625 / $3,300,000

= 0.1790*100

= 17.90%.
