Explanation / Answer
a. Gross margin percentage = Gross margin / Sales
= $4,706,000 / $10,100,000
= 46.59%
b. Return on assets = Net Income / Average total assets
= $1,037,925 / {($11,315,640 + $10,573,015)/2}
= 9.48%
c. Return on common stockholders’ equity = (Net Income - Preferred Dividend) / (Average common stockholders equity)
= ($1,037,925 - $29,450) ($111,000+$103,850+$4,268,740+$3,671,265) / 2
= 24.73%
