Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Revenues = $55,632 million

Net operating profit after tax = $9,954 million

Net operating assets at fiscal year-end 2016 = $58,603 million

Net operating assets at fiscal year-end 2015 = $59,079 million

Net operating profit margin is determined by dividing the net operating profit after tax by the total amount of revenues during a fiscal year.

Net operating profit margin:

= (Net operating profit after tax : Revenues) * 100

= ($9,954 : $55,632) * 100

= 0.1789 * 100

= 17.89%
