Explanation / Answer


a.

Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities

Current ratio = 387940 / 184372 = 2.104116 = 2.10

.

Quick ratio = (Current assets - Inventory) / Current liabilities

Quick ratio = (387940 - 212444) / 184372 = 0.9518582 = 0.95

b.

DSO = Account receivable / (Total sales / 365 days)

DSO = 141258 / (4063589 / 365) = 12.688087 = 12.69 days

.

Total assets turnover ratio = Net sales / Total assets

Total assets turnover ratio = 4063589 /1177852 = 3.450000 = 3.45 times

.

Fixed asset turnover ratio = Net sales / Fixed asset or Plant and equipment

Fixed asset turnover ratio = 4063589 / 711256 = 5.713258 = 5.71 times
