Explanation / Answer

(a) Total Assets in 2013 = 40 + 50 + 800 = 890

Total Assets in 2014 = 65 + 75 + 900 = 1040

Total Liabilities in 2013 = 50 + 600 = 650

Total Liabilities in 2014 = 60 + 700= 760

Shareholders Equity in 2013 = 890 - 650 = 240

(b) Shareholders Equity in 2014 = 1040 - 760 = 280

Current Assets in 2013 = 40 + 50 = 90

Current Assets in 2014 = 65 + 75 = 140

Current Liabilities in 2013 = 50

Current Liabilities in 2014 = 60

Working Capital in 2013 = 90 -50 = 40

Working Capital in 2014 = 140 - 60 = 80

(c) EBT in 2014 = 1950 - 1030 - 350 - 240 = 330

Income Tax paid = 330 * 35% = 115.50
