Answer:

Net income = $112,800

ROA = 29.68%

Explanation:

Net income for the year would be the profit margin generated by the database multiplied by the sales volume

[tex]N= 0.08*\$1,410,000\\N=\$112,800[/tex]

The return on assets (ROA) is given by the net income divided by total assets (expansion cost investment):

[tex]ROA = \frac{\$112,800}{\$380,000}\\ ROA =0.2968=29.68\%[/tex]

Database Systems' net income is $112,800 and its ROA is 29.68%.
