Question-1
Solution-a
1. Rate of return on the as
sets and Rate of return of ordinary equity
2. Debt to asset ratio
3. Average collection period
4. Times Interest earned
5. Days in Inventory and Inventory turnover
Solution-b
1. The BEP ratio provides the analysis about earning capacity of the business before the impact of the business income taxes and financial leverage (Eldenburg et al., 2019).
Basic earnings power ratio = EBIT / Total assets
Basic earnings power ratio = (157 500 + 6 300) / 809 550
Basic earnings power ratio = 20.23%
2. The debt to asset ratio is helpful in getting the amount of the total assets that basically finance by the creditors.
Debt to asset ratio = Total debt / Total assets
Debt to asset ratio = (312 480 + 63 000) / 809 550
Debt to asset ratio = 46.38%
3. The accounts receivable ratio determines the how many times the company can collect their receivable in particular year.
The Average collection period provides the information about the dates that credit sales were incurred and the days the money was received from customers (Kimmel, Weygandt, & Kieso, 2016).
Accounts receivable turnover = Sales / Average receivables
Accounts receivable turnover = 850 500 / ((315 000 – 26 350 + 280 350)/2)
Accounts receivable turnover = 2.99 times
Average collection period = 365 / Accounts receivables turnover
Average collection period = 365 days / 2.99 times
Average collection period = 122.07 days
4. The Times interest earned ratio (TIE) ratio determines the company ability to honor its debt payment.
Times Interest earned ratio = EBIT / Interest
Times Interest earned ratio = (157 500 + 6 300) / 6 300
Times Interest earned ratio = 26.00 times
5. The Inventory...
