Explanation / Answer

Profit Margin:

Media Networks = 186822/577800 = 32.3%

Parks and Resorts = 62816/422800 = 14.8%

Studio Entertainment = 8592/286400 = 3%

Consumer Products = 88128/346800 = 25.4%

Investment Turnover:

Media Networks = 577800 /963000 = 0.60 times

Parks and Resorts = 422800/604000 = 0.70 times

Studio Entertainment = 286400 / 358000 = 0.80 times

Consumer Products = 346800/204000 = 1.70 times

ROI: (as per Dupont formula)

Media Networks = 32.3% * 0.60 = 19.4%

Parks and Resorts = 14.8% * 0.70 = 10.4%

Studio Entertainment = 3% * 0.80 = 2.4%

Consumer Products = 25.4% * 1.7 = 43.18%
