Explanation / Answer

1. a) COGS of Digital Plus = Net Sales - Gross profit

Gross profit = gross profit margin * net sales

= 47.94% * 401500

= $1,92,479.1

COGS = 401500 - 192479.1

= $2,09,020.9

b)Gross profit = gross profit margin * net sales

= 47.94% * 401500

= $1,92,479.1

c) Interest expense = $0

As there is no debt

d) Operating expenses = gross profit - net income

= 1,92,479.1 - 49000

= $1,43,479.1

e) Total current assets = cash +short term investments + current receivables+ inventories+prepaid expenses

= 30500+52220+35000+66000+2280

= $1,86,000

f) Total assets = Total liabilities + total equity

= 109000+237000

= $3,46,000

g) Short term debt = Current liab. - accounts payable - accrued expenses

= 109000-75000-34000

= $0

h) Long term debt = Total liab - current liab

= 109000-109000

= $0

i) Current retained earnings= $49,000 (net income)

j) Total equity = Common stock + retained earnings

= 10000+227000

= $2,37,000

k) Gross profit of Speed network = Net sales- COGS

= 554800 - 231000

= $3,23,800

l)Net income = gross profit - interest expense - operating expense

= 323800-16500-232150

= $75,150

m) Total current assets = cash +short term investments + current receivables+ inventories+prepaid expenses

= 22000+21200+50000+58000+6800

= $1,58,000

n) Accounts payable = Current liab. - accrued expenses - short term debt

= 164000 - 39000-70000

= $55,000

o) Long term debt = total liab. - current liab.

= 199000-164000

= $35,000

p) current retained earnings = $75,150 (net income)

q) Ending retianed earnings = beginning retained earnings + current retained earnings

= 206225+75150

= $2,81,375

2. Current ratio = current asset / current liab.

a) DIgital plus is more favourable becuase the ratio is more than 1 indicating the current assets are sufficient to pay for the current liabilities

b) Speed network is less favourable becuase the ratio is less than 1 indicating current assets are less than current liab and hence are not sufficient  to pay for the current liabilities.

3) Quick ratio = (current assets - inventory - prepaid expenses) / current liab.

4) Debt ratio = total debt / total assets

Digital Plus Speed network Current assets         1,86,000                 1,58,000 Current liab         1,09,000                 1,64,000 Current ratio                 1.71                          0.96
