    Net income = $83,400

    Return on assets (investment) = 21.95%

    Explanation:

    We know,

    Net income = Net sales * profit margin

    Given,

    Net sales = $1,390,000

    profit margin = $380,000

    Putting the values into the formula, we can get

    Net income = Net sales * profit margin

    Net income = $1,390,000 * 6%

    Net income = $83,400

    Again,

    We know,

    Return on assets (investment) = Net income : Total asset (investment)

    Given,

    Total asset (investment) = $380,000

    Net income = $83,400

    Putting the values into the formula, we can get

    Return on assets (investment) = $83,400 : $380,000

    Return on assets (investment) = 0.2195

    Return on assets (investment) = 21.95%
