Answer:

GIVEN : Capital assets turnover ratio = 2.5

but , the formula for calculating, capital asset turnover ratio = net sales / fixed assets

( here, fixed asset = property ,plant & equipment -PP&E ; net sales= net revenue )

therefore, by substituting values from the given question, we get,

2.5 = 120 / value of PP&E

value of PP&E = 120 / 2.5

=$ 48
