Please calulate Inventory Turnover, Days sales outstanding and Debt Ratio.

Assets Cash $    72,000 Accounts receivable 439,000 Inventories 894,000   Total current assets $1,405,000 Fixed assets 431,000 Total assets $1,836,000 Liabilities and Equity Accounts payable $   332,000 Notes payable    100,000 Accruals 170,000   Total current liabilities $   602,000 Long-term debt 404,290 Common stock 575,000 Retained earnings 254,710 Total liabilities and equity $1,836,000

Explanation / Answer

Inventory Turnover ratio = Cost of Goods Sold / Inventory

Cost of Goods Sold = $3 580,000, Inventory = $ 894,000

Inventory Turnover Ratio = 3580000 / 894000 = 4 Times

(This Ratio can be Calculated on the basis of Sales also)

Days Sales Outstanding = Accounts Receivables / Credit Sales x 365

Accounts Receivables = $439,000, Credit Sales= $ 4,290,000 (All sales are assumed to be on credit)

Days Sales Outstanding = 439,000 / 4,290,000 x 365 = 37.35 Days

Debt Ratio:

Debt Ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Assets

Total Liabilities = 1,006,290 Total Assets = $1,836,000

Debt Ratio = 1,006,290 / 1,836,000 = 54.80%
