Answer 1

Answer to Requirement a.
Gross Margin percentage = Gross Margin / Sales * 100
Gross Margin percentage = $480 / $1,330 * 100
Gross Margin percentage = 36.1%

Answer to Requirement b.
Earnings per Share = Net Income / Common Stock Outstanding
Common Stock Outstanding = $100 / $1
Common Stock Outstanding = 100

Earnings per Share = $110 / 100
Earnings per Share = $1.10

Answer to Requirement c.
Price- Earnings Ratio = Price per Share / Earnings per Share
Price- Earnings Ratio = $9.36 / $1.10
Price- Earnings Ratio = 8.5times

Answer to Requirement d.
Dividend Payout Ratio = Dividend Paid / Net Income * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = $40 / $110 * 100
Dividend Payout Ratio = 33.3%

Answer to Requirement e.
Dividend Yield Ratio = Dividend per Share / Price per Share * 100
Dividend per Share = Dividend Paid / Common Stock Outstanding
Dividend per Share = $50 / 100
Dividend per Share = $0.50

Dividend Yield Ratio = $0.50 / $9.36 * 100
Dividend Yield Ratio = 5.34%
