Notes:

  • Current ratio: current assets/ current liabilties

Current assets: cash + (accounts receivable - allowance for doubtful debts) + merchandise inventory+ prepaid expenses

Notes receivable are due in 2019 (more than a year) hence not considered as current asset

Current liabilties: accounts payable + unearned sales

Notes payable are due in 2020 (more than a year) hence not considered as current liabilty

  • Acid test ratio = (current assets - inventory - prepaid expenses) / current liabilties
  • accounts receivable turnover= sales / average accounts receivable

Average accounts receivable = (beginning + ending )/2

for 2017: 1226400 / (40600+32950)/2 = 33.35

  • Merchandise turnover = cost of sales / average merchandise held

For 2017, merchandise turnover = 849400 / (42500+41900)/2 = 20.13

  • days sales uncollcted = accounts receivable / sales x 365

for 2017, 40600 / 1226400 x 365 = 12.08 days

  • days sales in inventory = 365 / invnetory turnover ratio
  • total asset turnover = sales / average assets

for 2017 , total asset turnover = 1226400 / ( 964150+ 817050)/2

total asset for 2017= current assets + notes receivable + fixed assets - accumulated depreciation

= 671150 + 13000 + 371250 - 91250 = 964150

total asset for 2016 = 486550 + 15500 + 405725 - 90725 = 817050

  • debt ratio = total debt / total assets

for 2017, debt ratio = (60000+290000)/ 964150 = 0.36
