Determine the following measures for 20Y2, rounding to one decimal place, except dollar amounts which should be rounded to the nearest cent. Assume 365 days a year.
Return on total assets %
Return on stockholders’ equity %
Return on common stockholders’ equity %

Answer 1.

Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
Working Capital = $36,90,000 - $900000
Working Capital = $27,90,000

Answer 2.

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Current Ratio = $36,90,000 / $900000
Current Ratio = 4.1

7) Number days' sales in inventory = (Inventory/Cost of goods sold) * 365 days

=(11,90,000 / 53,50,000) * 365 days = 81.18 days approx

8) Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities = Fixed Assets/Long Term Liabilities

=(2350000+3740000) / 1700000= 3.58 times

9) Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity = Total Liabilities/stockholders' equity

=26,00,000 / 71,80,000

=0.36211 times

10) Number of times interest charges are earned = Earnings Before Interest & Tax / Interest Expense

= 1300000 / 170000 = 7.64 times

11) Number of times preferred dividends are earned = Dividend on preferred stock/preferred stock

= 45000 / 500000

=0.09 times

12) Ratio of sales to assets = Net Sales (Total Sales-Sales Return)/Total Assets

= 10,000,000 / 9780000

= 1.022 times

13 ) Rate earned on total assets = Net Income/Average Total Assets(Opening+closing Total Assets)/2

=900000 /(8755000+ 97,80,000)/2

=900000/ 9267500

=0.09711 times or 9.711 %

14) Rate earned on stockholders' equity = Net Income/Average Stockholders' Equity(opening+closing stockholders' Equity)/2

=900,000/(6375000+7180000)/2

=900000/6777500

=0.132 or 13.27 %

15) Rate earned on common stockholders' equity=

(Net Income - Dividend on Preferred stock)/Average Common Stock(opening + closing common stockholders' equity)

=(900000-45000)/(500000+500000)/2

=855000/500000

=1.71 times

16. Earnings per share on common stock = (Net Income - Dividend on Preferred stock)/Common Stock(in numbers)

=(900000-45000)/100000

=8.55 times

17) Price-earnings ratio = Market Price per share/ Earnings per share

=119.70(given)/8.55

=14 times

18) Dividends per share of common stock = Dividend to common stock/common stock (in number)

=50000 / 100000

=0.5 times

19) Dividend yield = Dividends per share of common stock/Market Price per share

=(0.5 /119.70) * 100

= 0.835%
