1. Calculate the ROI for Target Co. based on its present operating income and the fair value of its net assets. (Round your percentage answer to 2 decimal places.)

2. Calculate the ROI that Takeover Co. will earn if the operating income of the acquired net assets continues to be $60,200. (Round your percentage answer to 2 decimal places.)
