efficiency, measuring how well a business is using its
assets to generate profit.

million/year, with
❖ a stock level of 35% of sales,
❖ annual holding cost for the stock is 20% of value,
❖ operating cost is 8 mil./year,
❖ other assets are valued at 15 mil.
Question: What is the current return on assets? How does
this change if stock levels are reduced to 25% of sales?
