Answer #1

ROA = Net Income / Total Assets

.0538 = Net Income / 1500000

Net Income = 1500000 * .0538

= 80700

Equity Multiplier = total asset / shareholders equity

2 = 1500000 / total equity

shareholders equity = 1500000 /2

= 750000

ROE = net income / shareholders equity

= 80700/750000

= 0.1076

= 10.76%
