Explanation / Answer

A. Computation of Current Ratio and quick ratio for 2005 and 2004

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

2005

2004

Total current assets

10,449

8.673

Total Current Liabilities

9,428

8,566

Current Ratio

=10449/9428

=8673/8566

=1.11 : 1

=1.01 : 1

               

Quick Ratio = Quick Assets / Current Liabilities

Quick Assets = Current Assets – Inventory – Deffered Tax Assets

               

2005

2004

Total current assets

10,449

8.673

Total Current Liabilities

9,428

8,566

Inventory

1,961

1,824

Deferred income taxes

861

982

(i) Quick Assets

=10,449-1961-861

=8673-1824-982

=7627

=5867

(ii) Quick Ratio

=7627/9428

=5867/8566

=0.81 : 1

=0.68:1

B. Computation of Total Liabilities to Stock holders’ equity ratio and Total debt to Stockholers’ equity ratio

Total liabilities to Stockholders’ equity ratio = Total Liabilities / Stock holders’ equity

Total liabilities = Total liabilities and stock holders’ equity – stock holders’ equity

               

2005

2004

Total liabilities and Stockholders’ equity

27,664

25,274

Stock holders’ equity

7,867

7,021

Total liabilities

=27,664-7,867

=25274-7021

=19,797

=18,253

Total liabilities to stockholders’ equity ratio

=19797/7867

=18253/7021

=2.52 : 1

=2.60:1

Total Debt to stockholders’ equity ratio = Total Debt / Stockholders equity

Total Debt = Long Term Debt

               

2005

2004

Long Term Debt

4,664

5,264

Stock holders’ equity

7,867

7,021

Total Debt to Stockholders’ equity

=4664/7867

=5264/7021

=0.59 : 1

=0.75 : 1

C. Computation of Interest Earned Ratio

Interest Earned Ratio= Net Profit Before Interest, Taxes and Dividend / Total Interest Expense

(this ratio tells how many times interest expense is covered by Net Profit )

               

2005

2004

Net profit before interest, taxes and dividend (operating profit)

3,006

2,089

Interest expense

370

425

Interest earned ratio

=3006/370

=2089/425

8.12 times

4.92 times

2005

2004

Total current assets

10,449

8.673

Total Current Liabilities

9,428

8,566

Current Ratio

=10449/9428

=8673/8566
