Answer:

The answer is a. $15.88%

                       b. 19.46%

Explanation:

a.   Equity multiplier =  total assets /shareholders equity

     Equity multiplier = $ 45.9 ​million/  $ 18.6 million= 2.47

ROE = net profit *  asset turnover * Equity multiplier

ROE = 3.42% * 1.88​ * 2.47=  $15.88%

b. ROE = net profit *  asset turnover * Equity multiplier

    ROE = 4.19 %​ * 1.88​ * 2.47 = 19.46%
