Explanation / Answer

a) Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities

= (4800+21300+10300)/11800 = 36400/11800 = 3.08 : 1

b) Acid test ratio = (current assets - inventory) / Current liabilities

= ( 36400 - 10300 ) / 11800 = 26100 / 11800 = 2.21 : 1

f) Asset turnover = Net sales / Average total assets

= 117,000 / (110,900+119,800)/2 = 117000 / 115350 = 1.01 : 1

g) Return on assets = Net income / Average total assets

= 14700 / (110,900+119,800)/2 = 14700 / 115350 = 12.74 %

h) Return on common stock holder's equity =

( Net income - prefferred dividend) / (average common equity)

= (14700-0)/(75000+69600)/2 = 14700 / 72300 = 20.33%

i) Debt to assets ratio = ( Short term debt + long term debt ) / total assets = (11800)/110,900

= 10.64%
