The following summarized data (amounts in millions) are taken from the September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013, comparative f
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Apple Inc.

a. Calculate Apple Inc.'s working capital, current ratio, and acid-test ratio at September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round your ratio answers to 1 decimal place. Enter "Working capital" in million of dollars.)

September 2014:

a) Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

= $45,660,000 - $34,978,000 = $10,682,000

b) Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

= $45,660 / $34,978 = 1.3 : 1

c) Acid-Test Ratio = Current Assets - Inventory / Current Liabilities

= $45,660 - 930 / $34,978 = 1.3 : 1

September 2013:

a) Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

= $41,940,000 - $21,160,000 = $20,780,000

b) Current Ratio  = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

= $41,940 / $21,160 = 2 : 1

c) Acid-Test Ratio Current Assets - Inventory / Current Liabilities

= $41,940 -1,200 / $21,160 = 1.9 : 1

b. Calculate Apple's ROE for the years ended September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)

September 2014

ROE = Net Income/Equity x 100 = $26,050/$77,290 x 100 = 33.7%

September 2013

ROE = Net Income/Equity x 100 = $14,160/$48,050 x 100 = 29.5%

c. Calculate Apple's ROI, showing margin and turnover, for the years ended September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013. (Round "Turnover" answers to 2 decimal places. Round your percentage answers to 1 decimal place.)

September 2014

ROI = Margin x Turnover = Net Operating Income/Sales x Sales/Average Assets

= ($33,950/$108,400) x ($108,400/$120,880)

= 0.31 x 0.90

= 0.279 = 27.9%

Average Assets = $120,880 ($147,820 + 93,940) /2

September 2013

ROI = margin = turnover = Net Operating Income/Sales x Sales/Average Assets

= ($18,530/$65,370) x ($65,370/$70,880)

= 0.28 x 0.92

= 0.258 = 25.8%

Average Assets = $70,880 ($93,940 + 47,820) /2

b) Working Capital is the excess of current assets over current liabilities.  It shows the amount of finance needed for meeting day-to-day operations of an entity.  Working capital measures a company's liquidity, operational efficiency, and its short-term financial health.  A healthy entity has some excess of current assets over current liabilities in order to continue to run the business operations in the short-run.  Working capital can also be measured in relative terms with the use of ratios, especially the current ratio and the acid-test ratio.

c) ROE means Return on equity.  It is a financial performance measure calculated by dividing net income by shareholders' equity.   Since shareholders' equity is equal to a company's assets minus its debt, ROE is considered as the return on net assets.  As with return on capital, a ROE measures management's ability to generate income from the equity available to it.

d) Return on Investment (ROI) is a financial performance measure which evaluates the efficiency of an investment or compares the efficiency of a number of different investments.  ROI tries to directly measure the amount of return on a particular investment, relative to the investment's cost.  As a financial metric, it measures the probability of gaining a return from an investment.

Lindsay Corporation had net income for 2018 of $3,000,000. Additional information is as follows: Depreciation of plant assets $1
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Net cash provided by operating activities for 2018 was $4,560,000

Explanation:

The net cash provided by operating activities can be computed by preparing the operating activities of the statement of cash flow as shown below:

Net income for the year                          $3,000,000

add depreciation                                      $1,200,000

add amortization                                       $240,000

deduct increase in accounts receivable ($420,000)

add increase in accounts payable           $540,000

net cash provided by operations             $4,560,000  

The cash provided by operating activities is $4,560,000  

The rationale for deducting increase in accounts receivable is that the increase deprived Lindsay corporation cash of $420,000.
