Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Each of the four components is heavily influenced by management. The profit margin is a function of how well managers control expenses, the asset turnover is a function of which assets the manager has chosen to purchase for the firm and how well those assets generate revenues. Leverage is the third component and managers choose the firm's capital structure, i.e., how to pay for the assets. Finally, the retention ratio is also a management decision.

Company policy about how to control expenses, the types of assets to buy, how to fund those assets, and how to distribute earnings to shareholders are all determined by executive management.
