Answer: 200%

Explanation:

First find the return required.

= 10% of total assets

= 10% * 5,000,000

= $500,000

The total manufacturing costs are:

= 250,000 + 450,000

= $700,000

We need to know the amount to increase the manufacturing costs by so that it covers both the desired return and the admin costs:

= (Desired return + Admin costs) / Manufacturing costs * 100%

= (500,000 + 600,000 + 300,000) / 700,000 * 100%

= 200%
