HINT: For Sales use "Total revenues" for your computations, when applicable.
(a) Compute net operating profit after tax (NOPAT) for 2016. Assume that the combined federal and state statutory tax rate is 37%. (Round to the nearest whole number.)
2016 NOPAT = Answer
($ millions)
(b) Compute net operating assets (NOA) for 2016 and 2015.
2016 NOA = Answer
($ millions)
2015 NOA = Answer ($ millions)
(c) Compute Costco’s RNOA, net operating profit margin (NOPM) and
net operating asset turnover (NOAT) for 2016. (Do not round until
final answer. Round two decimal places. Do not use NOPM x NOAT to
calculate RNOA)
2016 RNOA = Answer
%
2016 NOPM = Answer%
2016 NOAT = Answer
(d) Compute net nonoperating obligations (NNO) for 2016 and
2015.
2016 NNO = Answer
($ millions)
2015 NNO = Answer ($ millions)
(e) Compute return on equity (ROE) for 2016. (Do not round until
final answer. Round answer two decimal places)
2016 ROE = Answer
%
(f) Infer the nonoperating return component of ROE for 2016. (Use
answers from above to calculate. Round two decimal places.)
Answer
%
(g) What does the relation between ROE and RNOA suggest about Costco's use of equity capital?
ROE > RNOA implies that Costco's equity has grown faster than its NOA.
ROE > RNOA implies that Costco has taken on too much financial leverage.
ROE > RNOA implies that Costco is able to borrow money to fund operating assets that yield a return greater than its cost of debt.
ROE > RNOA implies that Costco increased its financial leverage during the period.
a) Net operating profits after tax(2016) = operating income * (1-tax rate)
= 3672 * (1-37%)
= $2313.36 millions
b) Net operating assets = total assets - total liabilities - financial assets + financial liabilities
2016 | 2015 | |
Total asset | $33,163 | $33,017 |
Total liabilities | $20,831 | $22,174 |
Short term investments | $1,350 | $1,618 |
Current portion of long term debt | $1,100 | $1,283 |
Long term debt excluding current portion | $4,061 | $4,852 |
Net operating assets | $16,143millions | $15,360 millions |
c) RNOA(2016) = net income / net operating assets
= 2350 / 16143
= 15%
NOPM(2016) = operating income / net sales
= 3672/ 116073
= 3.16%
Net operating asset turnover = Net sales / net operating assets
= 116073 / 16143
= 7.19
d) Net non operating assets = invested capital - total equity
Invested capital = net working capital needed for operations +net fixed assets + other assets needed for operation
2016 | 2015 | |
Operating current assets | $13,868 | $15,161 |
Operating current liabilities | $14,475 | $15,256 |
Net operating working capita | -$607 | -$95 |
Net fixed assets | $17,043 | $15,401 |

Net operating assets | $17,338 | $16,143 |
