    Return on equity = Net income/Shareholders' equity x 100

    = $29,600/$829,000 x 100

    = 3.57%

    The company's return on equity is closest to 3.67%

    Explanation:

    Return on equity is the ratio of net income to shareholders' equity. The net income = $29,600 and shareholders' equity = $829,000. The division of net income by shareholders' equity gives return on equity.
