A. Determine ratio of liablities to stockholders equity for Both Companies.

1. Santa Fe

Total Liablities = Current Liablities + Long Term Debts+ Other Long Term Liablities

=$ 99,328 + $ 376,734 + $ 132,366

= $ 608,428

Stock Holders Equity (Given) = $ 164,440

So,  ration of liablities to stockholders equity= Total Liablities / Stock holders Equity

= $ 608,428 / $ 164,440

= 3.7 Times

2. Madrid

Total Liablities = Current Liablities + Long Term Debts+ Other Long Term Liablities

=$ 362,167 + $ 423,720 + $ 164,780

= $ 950,667

Stock Holders Equity (Given) = $ 231,870

So,  ration of liablities to stockholders equity= Total Liablities / Stock holders Equity

= $ 950,667 / $ 231,870

= 4.1 Times

1. Santa Fe

Total Long TermLiablities = Long Term Debts+ Other Long Term Liablities

=$ 376,734 + $ 132,366

= $ 509,100

Fixed Assets (Given) = $ 356,370

So,  ration of Fixed Assets to Long Term liablities = Fixed Assets / Total Long Term Liablities

= $ 356,370 / $ 509,100

= 0.7 Times

2. Madrid

Total Long TermLiablities = Long Term Debts+ Other Long Term Liablities

=$ 423,720 + $ 164,780

= $ 588,500

Fixed Assets (Given) = $ 529,650

So,  ration of Fixed Assets to Long Term liablities = Fixed Assets / Total Long Term Liablities

= $ 529,650 / $ 588,500

= 0.9 Times
