A table shows that a company's net income is $350,000 on revenues of $2,500,000. What is the net profit margin?

A graph shows that the exchange rate changed from 1.20 USD/EUR to 1.32 USD/EUR. By what percentage did the dollar weaken against the euro?
Answer: 10%
(1.32 − 1.20) / 1.20 × 100 = 0.12 / 1.20 × 100 = 10%.
A report shows that a factory produces 1,800 units per week with a 4% defect rate. How many defect-free units are produced weekly?
Answer: 1,728
Defect-free = 1,800 × (1 − 0.04) = 1,800 × 0.96 = 1,728 units.
A summary table shows operating expenses grew from $620,000 to $713,000. If revenues stayed flat at $900,000, what happened to the operating margin?
Answer: It fell from 31.1% to 22.1%
Old margin = (900k−620k)/900k = 31.1%; new margin = (900k−713k)/900k = 187k/900k = 20.8%, a fall of about 10.3 pp — closest answer is 31.1% to 20.8%.
