Long-term liabilities 750,000
Total liabilities 850,000
Total stockholders’ equity 500,000
Determine the company’s (a) ratio of fixed assets to long-term liabilities and (b) ratio of liabilities to stockholders’ equity. Round to one decimal place.
Financial ratios : Financial ratios are indicators used to assess a company's liquidity, capabilities, profitability, and overall performance.
(a) Formula for calculating Ratio of fixed assets to long term liabilites
Ratio of fixed assets to long term liabilities = Fixed assets / Long term liabilities
=$1,050,000 / $750,000
=1.4
(b)Calculation of number of Day's sales in inventory
Ratio of liabilities to stockholder's equity = Total liabilities / Stockholder's Equity
=$850,000 / $500,000
=1.7
(a)Therefore , the ratio of fixed assets to long term liabilities is 1.4
(b)Therefore, the number of day's sales in inventory is 1.7
