f. Hoagland Corp's stock price at the end of last year was $33.50, and its book value per share was $25.00. What was its market/book ratio?
Answer of Part a:
Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold / Inventory
Inventory Turnover = $603,200 / $94,300
Inventory Turnover = 6.40
Days Sales in Inventory = 365 days / Inventory Turnover
Days Sales in Inventory = 365 / 6.40
Days Sales in Inventory = 57.03 days
Answer of Part b:
Return on Assets = (Profit Margin * Sales) / [(1+Debt Equity
ratio) * total equity] *100
Return on Assets = (0.046 * $828,900) /[(1+0.55) * $539,200]
*100
Return on Assets = $38,129.4 / $835,760 *100
Return on Assets = 4.56%
Answer of Part c:
Profit Margin = Net Income / Sales
0.052 = Net Income / $1,480,000
Net Income = 0.052 * $1,480,000
Net Income = $76,960
Return on Equity = Net Income / Total Equity *100
Return on Equity = $76,960 / $861,300 *100
Return on Equity = 8.94%
Answer of Part d:
Profit Margin = Net Income / Sales
0.056 = Net Income / $311,200
Net Income = 0.056 * $311,200
Net Income = $17,427.2
Earnings Per Share = Net Income / No.of Common Stock
Earnings Per Share = $17,427.2 / 15,000
Earnings Per Share = $1.16
Price Earnings Ratio = Market Price / Earnings Per Share
Price Earnings Ratio = $11.60 / $1.16
Price Earnings Ratio = 10
