Answer #1

Ratios according to current year ending 31st Dec 2017

A) Invested Capital = long term debt + total equity

=167+20,714 = 20,881 (long term debt can bonds,debentures etc....)

B) CAPEX ratio (CAPEX to operationg cash ratio) = cash flow from operations / CAPEX

CAPEX =capital exp = 1,494 (given)

cash flow from operations/ operating cash flows = 10,691 (given)

so, CAPEX to operationg cash ratio = 1,494/10,691 = 0.14 (rounded figure)

C) Fixed charge coverage ratio =

(Earnings before interest and taxes + Fixed charges before tax) / (Fixed charges before tax + interest)

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) given as "net income" = 7,806

Fixed charges before tax( depreciation and ammortisation & lease payment are taken as fixed exps as they remain fixed irrespective of the production) = 1,390 + 858 =2,248

Interest exp= 32 (given)

Fixed charge coverage ratio = (7,806 + 2,248) / (2,248 + 32) = 10,054 / 2,280 = 4.40

D) Financial leverage 1 (equity multiplier) = Total assets / Total stockholders equity

If equity multipler is 1 that means all the assets are contributed by the shareholders.Also less leverage can be interpreted as company failure  to obtain debt from market which is not that interesting for investors

Total assets =29,911(given)

Total stockholders equity = 20,714(given)

  equity multiplier = 29,911 / 20,714 = 1.44

( It is clear frpm the ratio that companies majority of assets are because of owners funding,not debt,giving us an idea that company failed to raise much debt from market )
