For the evaluation of new factory in the performance dashboard, the solution provided by ACCA shows “Current capital employed” as $170.3m. I am not able to figure out how this was computed. Can someone help?

ROCE = Operating Profit/Capital employed
So,
Capital employed = Operating profit/ROCE = 71/.417 = 170.3

Thank you very much! Now that I see how it can be computed, it seems rather simple, and also explains why there was no workings provided for this.
