Using the income statement for Times Mirror and Glass Co., compute the following ratios:
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

(A) Interest coverage charge ratio= 6.21

(B) Fixed charge coverage = 2.84

(C) Profit margin ratio= 8.57%

(D) Total assets turnover= 1.55

(E) Return on assets= 13.26%

Explanation:

(A) The Interest coverage charge ratio can be calculated as follows= EBIT/Interest expense

= 45,300/7,300

= 6.21

(B) The fixed charge coverage can be calculated as follows

= income before fixed charge + interest/fixed charges + interest

= 45,300+13,300/7,300+13,300

= 58,600/20,600

= 2.84

(C) The profit margin ratio can be calculated as follows

= Net income/sales × 100

= 22,800/266,000 × 100

=0.0857 × 100

= 8.57%

(D) The total assets turnover can be calculated as follows

= Sales/total assets

= 266,000/172,000

= 1.55

(E) The return on assets can be calculated as follows

= Net income/Total assets × 100

= 22,800/172,000 × 100

= 0.13255×100

= 13.26%
