    B) 16.0%

    Explanation:

    The return on investment (ROI) measures the profits earned by an investor divided by the total amount invested.

    cost of old trucks = $13,000 x 2 = $26,000

    cost of new truck = $52,000 - $26,000 = $26,000

    Cooper's controllable margin = $97,000

    Assets = $580,000

    assets after purchasing new truck = $580,000 + $26,000 = $606,000

    ROI = $97,000 / $606,000 = 16%
