Answer 1

Answer:

1. Gross profit ratio= Gross Profit/ Sales *100    

-Sales $ 20510,000      

-Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold  =20,510,000 - 12,550,000 = 7,960,000  

Gross Profit Ratio= 7,960,000 / 20,510,000 * 100

= 38.81%

2.Return on Assets= Net income after tax / Average Total assets  

Where Average Total assets= (9,800,000+8,160,000) / 2= 8,980,000

Where Net income after tax= 1,940,000

Return on Assets = 1,940,000 / 8,980,000 * 100 = 21.60%

3.Profit Margin= Net income/ Sales *100    

=1,940,000 /20,510,000 *100

= 9.46%    

4. Total Assets turnover= Sales / Average assets    

=20,510,000 / 8,980,000

=2.28 times  

5 Return on Equity: Net income after tax/ Average stockholder's equity  

Where Average Stockholder's equity: (2,050,000 +3,190,000 + 1990000 + 1766000) / 2 = $4498,000

Return on Equity: 1940000/4498,000 *100

= 43.13%
