Answer:

4.74%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Total receivables = $3,160

Day's sales in receivables = 20

Total assets = $73,000

Operating profit margin = 6.0%

Now,

Total sales = Total receivables Ă— [365 Ă· Day's sales in receivables ]

= 3,160 Ă— [ 365 Ă· 20 ]

= $57,670

Assets turnover ratio = Total sales Ă· Total assets

= $57,670 Ă· $73,000

= 0.79

Therefore,

ROA = Assets Turnover ratio Ă— Profit margin

= 0.79 Ă— 6.0%

= 4.74%
