Answer: Option B

Explanation: As we know that,

[tex]ROI=\frac{Operating\ income}{total\ assets}[/tex]

where,

Operating income = $60,000

total asset = current asset base - decrease in current asset base

total asset = $500,000 - $120,000

                  = $ 380,000

Now, putting the values into equation we get :-

[tex]ROI\:=\:\frac{\$60,000}{\$380,000}[/tex]

               = 15.79%
