Answer 1

a.

Current ratio = Total Current assets / Total Current liabilities = $1,110,000 / $850,000 = 1.31

b.

Acid test ratio = (Total Current assets - Inventory) / Current liabilities = ( $1,110,000 - $500,000 )/ $850,000 = 0.72

c.

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold (COGS) / Average inventory = $1,200,000 / ($430,000+$500,000) = 2.58

d.

Accounts receivable turnover = Net sales on credit / Average accounts receivable = $2,000,000/($350,000+$220,000) = 7.02

e.

debt ratio = total liabilities/total assets = 1,230,000/2,140,000 = 0.57

f.

Book value per common share = (Total shareholders equity - Preference equity)/Common Shares outstanding = $910,000/50,000 = $18.20
