(e) Compute return on equity (ROE) for 2012. (Round your answers
to two decimal places. Do not round until your final answer.)
2012 ROE =Answer%
(f) What is the nonoperating return component of ROE for 2012?
(Round your answers to two decimal places.)
Hint: Use your prior rounded answers to compute
this answer.
2012 nonoperating return =Answer%
(g) Which of the following statements reflects the best inference
we can draw from the difference between 3M's ROE and RNOA?
ROE > RNOA implies that 3M has taken on too much financial leverage.
ROE > RNOA implies that 3M is able to borrow money to fund operating assets that yield a return greater than its cost of debt.
ROE > RNOA implies that 3M's equity has grown faster than its NOA.
ROE > RNOA implies that 3M has increased its financial leverage during the period.
) Nopat for 2012 is computed as [ 6483 - (1840 - ((171-39)*37%) = 4692

NOPM (NOPAT / Sales) | 15.69% | =4692 / 29904 |

e) ROE = Net income attributable to 3m divided by Average of Total 3m company equity and Total equity
4444 / (17575 + 18040)/2 = 24.96%
f) Non operating return component = ROE - RNOA
= 24.96% - 22.35% = 2.61%
g) The best reference that can be drawn is ROE >RNOA imples that 3M is able to borrow money to fund operating assets that yield a return greater than its cost of debt
