A financial ratio by itself tells us little about a company since financial ratios vary a great deal across industries. There ar

e two basic methods for analyzing financial ratios for a company: time trend analysis and peer group analysis. Why might each of these analysis methods be useful? What does each tell you about the company’s financial health?

Answer:

When doing time trend analysis for financial ratios we can know how a company's ratio's have changed over time or if they have remained the same, so for example if a company's current ratio was less than 1 a year ago and is 3 now it means that the company was not very liquid a year ago but since then has made changes because of which it is liquid now, so we can see how a company has performed over a certain period of time.

On the other hand peer group analysis tells us how a company is performing compared to other companies in the same industry. For example if our cement company has a profit margin of 7% but the industry average is 15% we know that our company is doing something wrong  or different as compared to the industry and we can look into it.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

$1,045,517.95

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Semiannual payments = $193,000

Number of semiannual payments, n = 6

Annual interest rate, i = 6% = 0.06

when compounded semiannually = 6% ÷ 2 = 3% = 0.03  

Now,

Single Payment = Semiannual payments × PVAF

here,

PVAF = [ 1 - (1 + i )⁻ⁿ ] ÷ i

or

PVAF = [ 1 - (1 + 0.03 )⁻⁶ ] ÷ 0.03

or

PVAF = 5.4172

Therefore,

Single Payment = $193,000 × 5.4172

= $1,045,517.95
