Answer 1

a)	Earnings per share=Net income/Weighted-average common shares=185300/55100=3..36
b)	Return on common stockholder's equity=Net income/Average common stockholder's equity
	Average Common stockholder's equity=(Beginning Common stockholder's equity+Ending Common stockholder's equity)/2
	Average Common stockholder's equity=(461100+562800)/2=$ 511950
	Return on common stockholder's equity=185300/511950=0.3619=36.2%
c)	Return on assets=Net income/Average total assets
	Average total assets=(Beginning total assets+Ending total assets)/2=(848700+967400)/2=$ 908050
	Return on assets=185300/908050=0.2041=20.4%
d)	Current ratio=Current assets/Current liabilities=368800/203000=1.82
e)	Acid-test ratio=Quick assets/Current liabilities
	Quick assets=Current assets-Inventory=368800-124000=$ 244800
	Acid-test ratio=244800/203000=1.21
f)	Accounts receivable turnover ratio=Net sales/Average accounts receivable
	Average accounts receivable=(Beginning accounts receivable+Ending accounts receivable)/2=(102100+117100)/2=$ 109600
	Accounts receivable turnover ratio=1810600/109600=16.5 times
g)	Inventory turnover=Cost of goods sold/average inventory
	Average inventory=(Beginning inventory+Ending inventory)/2=(114400+124000)/2=$ 119200
	Inventory turnover=1012200/119200=8.5 times
h)	Times interest earned=Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT)/Interest expenses
	EBIT:
					$
	Income before taxes				265900
	Add: Interest expenses				17300
	EBIT				283200
	Times interest earned=283200/17300=16.4 times
i)	Assets turnover=Net sales/Average total assets
	Average total assets=(Beginning total assets+Ending total assets)/2=(848700+967400)/2=$ 908050
	Total assets turnover=1810600/908050=2 times
j)	Debt to asset ratio=Total liabilities/Total assets=404600/967400=0.4182=41.8%
