2) Prepare a Profitability And Total Asset Management Analysis by calculating for each company the: a) profit margin b) asset turnover c) return on assets
A) Profit Margin – Jan 15 = 14.10 Feb 14 = 14.41 Feb 13 = 14.62
B) Asset Turnover – Jan 15 = 2.12 Feb 14 = 2.06 Feb 13 = 2.35
C) Return on Assets – Jan 15 = 29.94 Feb 14 = 29.76 Feb 13 = 34.38

By comparing this ratios we can observe that there was a dip in overall performance from Feb-13 to Feb-14. This have resulted due to increase in assets by 14%. Post this expansion phase their performance is steady in Jan-15.
The net profit of company has remained steady over the observation period meaning thereby they are having steady operations and there expense to income ratio is also stagnant. However it can be observed that increase in assets in Feb-14 has no significant impact on the revenue or the expense. Hence it can be concluded that asset purchase are not used to generate revenue.
Turnover on assets has observed same pattern as return on assets due to steady income to expense ratio.
We can conclude that Buckle Inc. is a safe for investments where investor can expect steady return on their investments.
3) Prepare a Financial Risk Analysis by calculating for each company the: a) debt to equity ratio b) return on equity c) interest coverage ratio*
a) Debt / Equity
Buckle balance sheet debt in the year 2015 = $0 million
Equity in the year = $355.3 million
Debt / Equity in 2015 = 0 / 355.3 = 0%
As company did not have any on balance sheet debt in 2013 and 2014 as well, Debt / Equity ratio was zero in these years as well.
b. Return on Equity = Net Income / Shareholders Equity
For the year 2015, Return on Equity = 162.564 / 355.278 = 45.8%
For the year 2014, Return on Equity = 162.584 / 361.93 = 44.9%
For the year 2013, Return on Equity = 164.305 / 289.649 = 56.7%
c. Interest coverage ratio = Operating profit (EBIT) / Interest expense
As there is no debt, hence no interest expense. Due to this, EBIT is same Income before income tax.For 2015, Interest coverage = Income before income tax / Interest
4) Prepare a Liquidity Analysis by calculating for each company the cash flow yield a) Cash flows to sales b) Cash flows to assets c) Free cash flows
A) cashflows to sales= operating cash flow/net sales
here free cash flow would be net income.....
so from that data if we calculate cashflow to sales for 2015 would be
for denims would be = 1,62,564/71,040.468
=2.28 times
B) cash flow to assets=cash flow from operstions/average total assets
average total assets= total assets of current year+previous year/2
here weighted average share capital and price of share is given so
total asset of current year (2015)= weighted average shares*price of shares
= 48,090*3.38
= $1,62,544.2
total assets of previous year (2014) = 47,976*3.39 = $1,62,638.64
now average total assets=$1,62,544.2+$1,62,638.64/2 = $1,62,591.42
Cashflow to total assets = 1,62,564/1,62,591.42 = 0.9999 TIMES
