Required:
What would net income and return on assets(investment) be for the year?

Net income = $83,400

Return on assets(investment) = 21.95%

Explanation:

We know,

Net income = Net sales × profit margin

Given,

Net sales = $1,390,000

profit margin = $380,000

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Net income = Net sales × profit margin

Net income = $1,390,000 × 6%

Net income = $83,400

Again,

We know,

Return on assets(investment) = Net income ÷ Total asset (investment)

Given,

Total asset (investment) = $380,000

Net income = $83,400

Putting the values into the formula, we can get

Return on assets(investment) = $83,400 ÷ $380,000

Return on assets(investment) = 0.2195

Return on assets(investment) = 21.95%
