Question

Condensed financial data are presented below for the Phoenix Corporation:

Answer 1

Answer:

profit margin 7.77%

Interpretation: from evey dollar of sales the firm achieves almost 8 cent of net income

inventory turnover ratio 3.45

Interpretation: the inventory is sold 3 and a half times during the year

Explanation:

the profit margin is the quotient between net income and sales.

$\frac{net \: income}{sales} = profit margin$

127,500 / 1,640,000 = 7.77%

the inventory turnover wil be the cost of good sold over the average inventory during the year

(312,500 + 257,500)/ 2  = 285,000

982,500 / 285,000 = 3,447368421
