A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/13/M/J/23

Explanation
Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) Calculation Steps:
- Identify operating profit as $28,000 (profit from operations, before interest).
- Calculate capital employed as non-current assets + net current assets = 45,000 = $530,000 (standard formula: total assets - current liabilities).
- Compute ROCE = (530,000) × 100% ≈ 5.3%.
- Note: Interest payable (80,000) confirm equity via balancing but do not alter capital employed.
Not enough information: Result (5.3%) does not match any option; possible transcription error in figures (e.g., non-current assets as 112,000 capital and 25%).
Final answer: Not enough information.
