ROA=2.7995/69.5=4.03%

Explanation:

ROE

Return on equity of Ladder, Inc shall be calculated using the following formula:

ROE=Net profit/Equity

Net profit=5.5%*50.9=$2.7995 million

Equity=$40.9 million

ROE=2.7995/40.9=6.84%

ROA

Return on asset of Ladder, Inc shall be calculated using the following formula:

ROA=net profit/total assets

net profits=$2.7995 million

Total assets=Total equity+total liabilities

                   =40.9+28.6

                   =$69.5 million

ROA=2.7995/69.5=4.03%
