Answer:

The primary goals of managers, investors, and creditors when evaluating ratios are:

1. Managers use ratio analysis to evaluate their performance, understand financial results and trends, and determine the strengths and weaknesses of different strategies and initiatives.

2. Investors perform ratio analysis of the financial statements of companies in order to evaluate the financial health of the companies and estimate likely future performances.  By performing ratio analysis, investors can determine how a company receives financing, uses resources, settles maturing debt obligations, and generate profits.

3. On the part of creditors, they are always interested in knowing if a company is overtrading, uses debt resources efficiently, is credit-worthy, and has the ability to repay.

Explanation:

Ratio analysis reveals important insights about a company's profitability, liquidity, operational efficiency, and overall solvency.  Ratio analysis shows a company's performance in important indices over time.  It can also be used as a tool to compare one company with another, especially if they are in the same industry or economic sector.  Various stakeholders, including managers, creditors, investors, and employees, use ratio analysis to understand the company's value creation ability.

Andrew [12]

Answer:

$1,025.299

Explanation:

The formula for compound interest is

FV = PV × (1+r)^ n

Where Fv is the future value

Pv is the present value = $1000

r is interest rate = 1/2 %  or 0.5% per year

n is five years

interest is compounded quarterly,  

Interest per quarter = 0.5% /4 = 0.125%  which is 0.00125

n will be 5 years x 4 quarters = 20 periods

Fv= $1000 x (1 +0.00125)^20

Fv =$1000 x(1.00125)^20

Fv= $1000 x 1.025299

Fv = $1,025.299
