    So to look this in depth

    Asset turnover =
    sales/capital employed

    Operating profit margin = Pbit/sales

    The above two formulas could be viewed in two perceptions

    1.
    Asset turnover indicates us how well an entity converts its capital employed into sales

    And

    Operating profit margin indicates us how well an entity converts its sales into profit. (That is profit before interest and tax)

    2.
    Asset turnover indicates us how much sales is generated Based on each $ of capital employed of the company.

    And

    Operating profit margin indicates us how much profit (before interest and tax) is generated based on each $ of capital employed of the company.

    Am I correct master
