5. If the company pursues the investment opportunity and otherwise performs the same as last year, the turnover will be:
Sales = $12,600,000 + $560,000 = $13,160,000
Average operating assets = $7,000,000 + $800,000 = $7,800,000
Turnover = Sales ÷ Average operating assets = $13,160,000 ÷ $7,800,000 = 1.69
