Answer:
The inventory turnover ratio is 3.58 times
Explanation:
Inventory turnover ratio an efficiency ratio that indicates how many times a company sells and replaces its stock of goods during a particular period
Inventory turnover ratio is calculated by using following formula:
Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of Goods Sold/Average Inventory
In there:
Average Inventory = (Beginning inventory + Ending inventory)/2
In the company:
Average Inventory = ($53,000 + $43,000)/2 = $48,000
Inventory turnover = $172,000/$48,000 = 3.58 times
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%

The answer is: $4,522
Explanation:
Since Stanford doesn't operate in the restaurant business and doesn't buy the restaurant, he cannot deduct any amount for investigation costs relating to the restaurant.
Stanford doesn't operate in the bakery business but he bought the bakery, so he can deduct up to $5,000 (before amortization) for investigation costs related to the bakery. But those $5,000 are reduced by every dollar he spent over $50,000, so he can only deduct $4,000 [= $5,000 - ($51,000 - $50,000)].
The remaining $47,000 (= $51,000 - $4,000) can be amortized over 180 months, which equals $261 per month (= $47,000 / 180 months).
Since he bought the restaurant in November, he can deduct two months: $261 per month x 2 months = $522
So his total deduction for investigation expenses is = $4,000 + $522 = $4,522
