Use three columns: The left column should list the relevant accounts, the middle column should show the appropriate values for each account in 2016, and the right column should show the appropriate values for 2017.

2. Compute full (combined federal and provincial) corporate taxes for Cocoa Co. for both 2016 and 2017. Cocoa is a small corporation based in New Brunswick. As such it pays only 15.5% (i.e., 11% federal and 4.5% provincial tax) on the first $425,000 it earns, and then pays 27.0% (i.e., 15% federal and 12% provincial tax) on the remainder.

3. What was net income for both years?

4. If Cocoa’s payout ratio is always 40%, what was the addition to retained earnings for both years?

5. Construct a statement of financial position for Cocoa Co. for both 2016 and 2017. (In constructing the SFP, please use three columns: The left column should list the relevant accounts that appear on the SFP, the middle column should show the appropriate values for each account in 2016, and the right column should show the appropriate values for each account in 2017.)

6. Calculate Cocoa’s current ratio for 2017. Explain what it means, and state whether you think it’s good news or bad news for Cocoa’s managers.

7. If the value of Cocoa’s assets are to remain unchanged for the foreseeable future, and its profits are expected to increase, what do you expect will happen to its ROA.
