Answer 1

Answer:

a) 65%

b) 11.4%

c) 25%

d) $25 per share

Explanation:

(a) Ratio of sales to assets = Sales revenue / Total assets

= $1,300,000/ $2,000,000 = 65.0%

(b) Rate earned on total assets = Annual net income / Average total assets

= $250,000 / $2,200,000 = 11.4%

(c) Rate earned on common stockholder's equity = Net Income / Average common stockholder's equity

= $250,000 / $1,000,000 = 25%

(d) Earning per share on common stock = Net Income / Share of common stock outstanding

= $250,000 / 10,000 = $25 per share
