    A) 7.0%

    Explanation:

    Average total Assets = (Opening Assets + Closing Assets) / 2

    Average total Assets = (200,000 + 300,000) / 2

    Average total Assets = $250,000

    Formula for return on assets:

    Return on assets = Net Income / Average total Assets

    Return on assets = 17,500 / 250,000

    Return on assets = 0.07

    Return on assets = 7%

    Correct option is A) 7.0%
