Explanation / Answer

current ratio = current assets/ current liabilities

=$1286490/$573705

=2.24

quick ratio: current assets - inventories/ current liabilities

= $1286490 - $434625/ 573705

=1.48

Day's sales outstanding :

accounts receivable/ Average credit sales per day

= $695400/ $2850000 *365

= 89 DAYS

Inventory turnover :

COGS / inventory = $2422500/434625

= 5.57

Total assets turnover :

COGS/TOTAL ASSETS

= $2422500/$1738500

=1.39

profit margin :

NI/ SALES

= $32100/ $28560000

= 1.13%

ROA :

net income/ total assets :

= $32,100/$1738500

= 1.85%

ROE :

NET INCOME/ EQUITY

= 4.5%

ROIC:

NET INCOME/ CAPITAL EMPLOYED

= $32100/ $1738500

=1.846%

TIMES INTEREST EARNED :

EBIT/ EBT

= $114000/$53500

=2.13

DEBT/TOTAL CAPITAL

= $504165/ $1738500

= 29%

DU PONT FORMULA:

PROFIT MARGIN* TOTAL ASSETS TURNOVER * EQUITY MULTIPLIER

= NI/SALES * SALES/ TOTAL ASSETS * ASSETS/ EQUITY

=$32100/ $2850000 * 2850000/$1738500 * $1738500/ $660630

= 0.0113 * 1.639 * 2.63

=4.87%

INDUSTRY EQUITY MULTIPLER =

NI/SALES * SALES /ASSETS * ASSETS /EQUITY = RETURN ON EQUITY

=1.07 * 1.81 * X = 5.4

X = 2.78
