QUESTION #6118
Question 1
Financial data: Profit from operations $125,000; Profit for year $116,000; Shareholders' equity $423,000; Long-term loan $80,000; Current liabilities $45,000. What is the ROCE?
Correct Answer Explanation
Option D (24.85%) is correct.
ROCE = Profit from operations ÷ Capital Employed × 100
Capital Employed = Shareholders' equity + Non-current liabilities = $423,000 + $80,000 = $503,000
(Current liabilities are excluded from capital employed.)
ROCE = $125,000 ÷ $503,000 × 100 = 24.85%
