Profit Margin is calculated by using the below mentioned formula:

= Net Profit / Sales

Total Assets Turnover ratio is calculated by using the below formula:

Total Assets Turnover Ratio = Net Sales / Total Assets

Total Assets Turnover Ratio = 2.45 times

Total Assets = $ 9,500,000

By feeding these values in the above mentioned formula we shall get net sales as:

Net Sales = 2.45 x $ 9,500,000

= $ 23,275,000

Return on Assets = Net Profit / Total Assets

Return on Assets = 11% or 0.11

Total Assets  = $ 9,500,000

By feeding these values in the above mentioned formula we shall get net profit as:

Net Profit = 0.11 x $ 9,500,000

Net Profit = $ 1,045,000

Profit Margin = Net Profit / Sales

Net Profit = $ 1,045,000

Sales = $ 23,275,000

By feeding these values in the above mentioned formula we shall get profit margin as:

Profit Margin = $ 1,045,000 / $ 23,275,000

= 4.49% Approximately
