Explanation / Answer

Working // Calculation of the Ratios :-

1. Gross Profit Ratio = (Gross Profit / Sales) * 100

= {(Sales - Cost of Goods Sold) / Sales} *100

= {($22,710,000 - $13,100,000) / $22,710,000} * 100

= 42.32 %

2. Return on Assets = (Net Income / Total Assets) * 100

= ($2,380,000 / $10,900,000) * 100

= 21.83%

3. Profit Margin = (Net Profit or Net Income / Net sales or Net revenue) * 100

= ($2,380,000 / 22,710,000) * 100

= 10.48%

4. Asset Turnover Ratio = Net sales during the year / Average total assets

= $22,710,000 / {($8,820,000 + $10,900,000)/2}

= 2.30 Times

5. Return on Equity = Net Income / Shareholder's Equity (Common Stock + Retained Earnings)

= $2,380,000 / ($2,325,000 + $3,575,000) *100

= 40.33 %
