The Ste. Marie Division of Pacific Media Corporation just started operations. It purchased depreciable assets costing $48.0 million and
having a four-year expected life, after which the assets can be salvaged for $9.6 million. In addition, the division has $48.0 million in
assets that are not depreciable. After four years, the division will have $48.0 million available from these nondepreciable assets. This
means that the division has invested $96.0 million in assets with a salvage value of $57.6 million. Annual depreciation is $9.6 million.
Annual operating cash flows are $20.6 million. In computing ROI, this division uses end-of-year asset values in the denominator.
Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis, recognizing the salvage values noted. Ignore taxes.
Required:
a. & b. Compute ROI, using net book value and gross book value for each year. (Enter your answers as a percentage rounded to 1
decimal place (i.e., 32.1).)
Answer is complete but not entirely correct.
