Solutions

Expert Solution

a)

Altman z score = 1.2*A + 1.4*B + 3.3*C + 0.6*D +1.0*E

A = Working capital / Total assets

B = Retained earnings / Total assets

C = Earnings before interest and taxes / total assets

D = Market value of equity / total liablities

E = Sales / total assets

  • 2016

A = 2566 / 47806 = 0.05

Working capital = total current assets - total current liablities = 15108 - 12542 = 2566

B =3254/ 47806 = 0.07

Retained earnings = Net income - dividends paid = 5302-2048 = 3254

C = 5549 / 47806 = 0.12

D = 72232.7 / 47806 = 1.51

Market value of equity = Number of shares* market price = 289*249.94 = 72232.7

E =47248 / 47806 = 0.99

Altman z score (2016) = 1.2*0.05 + 1.4*0.07 + 3.3*0.12 + 0.6*1.51 +1.0*0.99 = 2.45

  • 2015

A = 655 / 49304 = 0.013

Working capital = total current assets - total current liablities = 14573-13918 = 655

B =1773/ 49304 = 0.036

Retained earnings = Net income - dividends paid = 3705-1932 =1773

C = 4742 / 49304 = 0.1

EBIT = Operating profit +other non operating income =4712 +30 =4742

D = 54730.2 / 49304 = 1.11

Market value of equity = Number of shares* market price= 249*219.8 = 54730.2

E =40536 / 49304 = 0.82

Altman z score (2016) = 1.2*0.013 + 1.4*0.036 + 3.3*0.1 + 0.6*1.11 +1.0*0.82 = 1.882

  1. Yes ,the company increased its working capital by decreasing its current liablities
  2. No, the company increased its retained earnings,thus increased liquidity
  3. Yes , companies EBIT increased as a result of increase in net sales
  4. Yes, market value of equity increased over the year
