Hello Sir,
from a mock exam
the following ratios have been calculated for a company
Gross profit margin 28%
Operating profit margin 15%
Gearing (Debt/Equity) 30%
Asset turnover 60%
what is the return on capital employed for the company
The answer is 9%
Can you help clarify please,
Thanks

You really should watch the free lectures.
It is very standard in F5 (and in F2 and F3) that the ROCE = asset turnover x operating profit margin.
60% x 15% = 9%
