Explanation / Answer

I will be giving the formulaes , how to calculate the ratios. Using these you can calculate across the years.

Profitability Ratios:

Return on Equity(%)= (Earning after tax/(common stock+retained earnings))
For 2011 : (369/(1043+150))=31%

Return on Assets(%)= Earning after tax/ Assets
For 2011: (369/3275)=11%

Profit margin(%)=( Earning after tax/Net sales)
For 2011: (369/11190)=3%

Gross margin(%)=(gross profit/sales)
For 2011: (1790/11190)=16%


Asset Turnover:

Fixed assets Turnover= (Net sales/ Assets)
For 2011 :(11190/3275)=3.42

Inventory Turnover= (COGS/inventory)
For 2011 :(9400/1119)=8.4

Collection Period= 365*(Account Receivable/sales)
For 2011: (365*1343/11190)=43.8 days

Payable period= 365*(Account payable/Sales)
For 2011: (365*1007/11190)=32.85 days

Leverage and Liquidity Ratio:

Debts to assets= ((Current Liablities+Long term debt)/ total assets)
For 2011: (1122+960)/3275=0.64

Debt to equity=((Current Liablities+Long term debt)/ (Common stock+retained earnings)
For 2011: (1122+960)/(150+1043)=1.75

Times Interest earned= EBIT/interest expense
For 2011: (1790-1019)/100=7.71

Current Ratio= Current assets/current liabilty
For 2011: (3147/1122)=2.81
