* 1 i.e. Net Income = Profit Margin * Net Sales = 12.5%*200000 = $25000
* EBIT = Times Interest Earned * Interest Expense = 8*5000 = 40000
* 2 i.e Income before Income taxes = EBIT - Interest = 40000-5000 = 35000
* 3 i.e. Income Tax expense = 35000-25000 = 10000
* 4 = Gross Profit - Income Before Taxes = 125000-35000 = 90000
* 5 i.e. Depreciation = Total Expenses - Interest - Sell. Exp. - Admn. Exp. = 90000-5000-8000-12000 = 65000
* Receivables Turnover = Net Sales / Average Receivables, 4 = 200000/[(6+40000)/2], From here 6 i.e. Accounts receivable = 60000
* Acid Test Ratio = Current Assets except Inventory / Current Liabilities = 30000+10000+60000/7+40000, 7=$10000
* Current Assets = Current Liabilities*3, Current Assets = $150000, 8i.e. Inventory = 50000
* 9 i.e. Total Assets = sum of all assets = 350000
* 9=11
* 10 = Bonds Payable = Total liabilities - other liabilities = 20000
