Answer:

      2015  

Intel   Texas    

$55,355  $31,858 Net Sales

$13,000  $2,596 PPE

4,26  12,27  PPE

Explanation:

To find the PPE we need to know the TOTAL REVENUE and the value of the balance sheets of the TOTAL PPE (Property, Plant & Equipment) , this last value of fixed assets must be net of accumulated depreciation, we need the value at the beginning and at the end of the year, because we compare the total sales of the year with the total fixed assets investment of the same year year.

Then we divide the Total Net Revenues , (Gross Sales, less returns and allowances) by the Average Fixed Assets ( Beginning Balance - Final Balance)/2.

This ratio shows to the company how well invested was the purchase of new Machinery and property during the year.
