Your friend, another accountant, has bet you that with your knowledge of accounting and just the computations for common analytical measures, you can figure out many aspects of a company's financial statements. You take the bet!
Match each computation to one of the liquidity and solvency measures in the table. (Hint: Begin by looking for simple computations and identifying the amounts in those computations. Look for other measures that use those amounts.)
Liquidity and Solvency Measures | Computations |
Working capital | $3,093,000 – $840,000 |
Accounts receivable turnover | ($983,100 + $127,000) ÷ $127,000 |
Quick ratio | [($1,072,000 + $1,100,000) ÷ 2] ÷ ($4,100,000 ÷ 365) |
Ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities | $8,270,000 ÷ [($714,000 + $740,000) ÷ 2] |
Current ratio | $2,530,000 ÷ $4,077,000 |
Inventory turnover | $3,093,000 ÷ $840,000 |
Times interest earned | [($1,072,000 + $1,100,000) ÷ 2] ÷ ($4,100,000 ÷ 365) |
Number of days' sales in receivables | $2,690,000 ÷ $1,690,000 |
Ratio of liabilities to stockholders' equity | $8,270,000 ÷ [($714,000 + $740,000) ÷ 2] |
Number of days' sales in inventory | $4,100,000 ÷ [($1,072,000 + $1,100,000) ÷ 2] |

Look for patterns in the computations and match them to ratios that are related to each other. Identify the amounts in the computations and consider how they are related to amounts in other computations.
Balance Sheet
Shaded cells have feedback.
Use the following balance sheet form to enter amounts you identify from the computations on the Liquidity and Solvency Measures panel. You will identify other amounts for the balance sheet on the Profitability Measures panel. If you have a choice of two amounts, assume the first amount in the ratio is for the end of the year. Compute any missing amounts.

Two of the computations use shares.
Comparative Income Statement
Shaded cells have feedback.
Use the following comparative income statement form to enter amounts you identify from the computations on the Liquidity and Solvency Measures panel and on the Profitability Measures panel. Compute any missing amounts and complete the horizontal analysis columns. Enter percentages as decimal amounts, rounded to one decimal place. When rounding, look only at the figure to the right of one decimal place. If < 5, round down and if ? 5, round up. For example, for 32.048% enter 32.0%. For 32.058% enter 32.1%.
