Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold / average inventory

Average inventory = (beginning inventory + Ending inventory)/2

= ($180,000+ $200,000)/2 = $190,000

Now,

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold/average inventory

4.5 = cost of goods sold / $190,000

Cost of goods sold = $190000* 4.5 = $855,000

Solution b:

Accounts receivable turnover = Net credit sales/ average accounts receivable

Average accounts receivable = ($126000 + $72500)/2 = $99,250

Accounts receivable turnover = net credit sales/ Average accounts receivable

8.8 = net credit sales / $99250

Net credit sales = 99250 * 8.8 = $873,400

Solution c:

Average stockholders' equity =[($400,000+$101,000) + ($400,000+$113,500)] /2 = $507,250

Return on common stockholders equity = net income / average common stockholders' equity

.16 = net income/ $507250

Net income = $81,160

Solution d:

Return on assets = Net income / averages total assets

.125 = $81160 / average total assets

Average total assets = $81160/.125 = $649,280

Average total assets = (beginning total assets + ending total assets)/2

$649,280 = ($655,000 + Ending total assets) /2

Ending total assets = ($649280*2) - $655000 = $643,560
