    No, Bubble Inc.'s ROA decreased in 2016

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Net income in 2015 = $500,000

    Assets in 2015 = $5,000,000

    Return on assets (ROA) = Net income : Assets

    = 500,000 : 5,000,000

    = 0.1 or 10%

    Net income in 2016 = $600,000

    Assets in 2016 = $7,000,000

    Return on assets (ROA) = Net income : Assets

    = 600,000 : 7,000,000

    = 0.086 or 8.6%

    It can be seen that ROA has reduced to 8.6% in 2016 as compared to 10% in 2015. This is because incremental increase in net income is lower in 2016 as compared to incremental increase in assets.
