b. Which of the following show a positive or negative trend?
|
Answer a-1.
Year 1:
Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold
Gross Profit = $606,000 - $353,000
Gross Profit = $253,000
Gross Profit Percentage = Gross Profit / Sales
Gross Profit Percentage = $253,000 / $606,000
Gross Profit Percentage = 42%
Year 2:
Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold
Gross Profit = $756,000 - $417,000
Gross Profit = $339,000
Gross Profit Percentage = Gross Profit / Sales
Gross Profit Percentage = $339,000 / $756,000
Gross Profit Percentage = 45%

Accounts Receivable Turnover = $606,000 / $100,000
Accounts Receivable Turnover = 6.1 times

Accounts Receivable Turnover = $756,000 / $150,000
