Answer:
a) DuPont analysis for Johnson International
2013: 0.059 x 2.11 x 1.75 = 0.2179 = 21.79%
2014: 0.058 x 2.18 x 1.75 = 0.2213 = 22.13%
2015: 0.049 x 2.34 x 1.85 = 0.2121 = 21.21%
b) DuPont analysis for industry averages
2013: 0.054 x 2.05 x 1.67 = 0.2121 = 21.21%
2014: 0.047 x 2.13 x 1.69 = 0.1692 = 16.92%
2015: 0.041 x 2.15 x 1.64 = 0.1446 = 14.46%
c) Johnson International's drivers follow the same tendency as the industry's average, e.g. net profit margin decreased in a similar manner, and total asset turnover increased also in a similar manner to the industry's average. The only driver that doesn't follow the industry's trend is financial leverage. While other companies in the same industry decreased their financial leverage, Johnson increased it. You should further analyze why this happened and what are the potential consequences.
Explanation:
The DuPont analysis is used to break down ROE into 3 different components and that way you can analyze whether a company's high ROE comes along with a high risk. The following formula is used to calculate ROE based on 3 different factors:
R
OE = net pro
fit margin x total assets turnover x financial leverage
The price of the product will increase and then the quantity of the output will also be more than the original one.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In a market which is purely competitive, with the increase in the demand of the particular good in the market, the price of the good will also increase because of the increase in the demand by the consumers. After making the adjustments, the quantity will therefore also increase of the output than the original one.
