Explanation / Answer

For Prince Net Income is 467900 Hence its return on assets = 467900/1935799 = 24.2%

and return on common stockholders' equity = 467900/(1135000+391484)= 30.7 %

For King Net Income is 217600 Hence its return on assets = 217600/1844171 = 11.8%

and return on common stockholders' equity = 217600/(1135000+332771)= 14.8 %
