Assets Turnover ratio = Net sales / Average Fixed Assets

Average Fixed Assets = (Opening Assets + Ending Assets)/2

 

Year 1:

Assets Turnover ratio = 2020200 / (521000+571000)/2

= 2020200 / 546000

= 3.7

 

 

Year 2:

Assets Turnover ratio = 1831360 / (571000+573600)/2

= 1831360/ 572300

= 3.2
