Question

I know it's a lot but they are all small questions related to the same case so I didn't know how to split it into multiple questions. I would really appreciate the help, as I need a way to compare my answers.

Answer 1

A.Balancesheet

Assets	AMOUNT($ Millilon)	Liabilities	AMOUNT($ Million)
Net palnt and equipment	5	Common equity	3.5
Cash and Cash equivalnats	1.5	Longterm debt	2.5
Account Receivables	0.4	Notes Payable	0.5
Other Current Assets(Balancing Figure)	0.6	Accounts Payable	0.4
		Accruals	0.6
Total Assets	7.5	Total Liabilities& Shareholders equity	7.5

B. Total Liabilities 4 million $(longterm debt 2.5million $+Notes payable 0.5 Million $+Accounts payable 0.4 Million $+Accruals 0.6Million$ ,

equity 3.5 Million $

C.Total Assets= Net plant and equipment + Current Assets

7.5 Millilon $= 5 million$+ Current Assets

7.5Million $-5 million $= 2.5 Million$

Current Assets = 2.5 Million $

D.current liabilities =1.5 Million $( Notes payable 0.5Million$+Accounts Payables 0.4 Million $+Accruals 0.6 Million$)

E.Inventory (other current Assets Mentioned in above balancesheet) 0.6 Million $

F. Total Liabilities 4 million $

G.total debt 2.5 million $

H. Total capital 3.5 million $

I. Net working capital =Current Assets-Current liabilities

Total Current Assets= cash and cash equivalants 1.5 Million$+Account receivables 0.4 Million $+ other current Assets 0.6 million $ =2.5 Million $

Total current libilities=Notes payables 0.5Milion $+ Accounts payables 0.4 million $+accruals 0.6milion $=1.5 million $

So net workimg capital =2.5million $-1.5 milion $=1 million $

J. Operating working capital same as above 1 million $

K. If retained earnings 2.5 million $

Paid up capital is 1 million $ (3.5m$-2.5m$)

L.i f purchase 0.5 million $ market securities

The position of cash and cash equivalants is 1 Million $

M. Net income=Cash devidend + Retained earnings

5.4 Million $= 2 milion $+ Retained earnings

Retained earnings = 3.4 million $

N. Operating income 15 million $

O. Operaring margin 10 million $

Operaring Margin or profit margin = Operating profit(EBITDA)/sales *100

10/15×100=66.67%
