Chapter 8. Student Ch08 P 8-15 Build A Model: Assets

Joshua & White Technologies' financial position declined slightly from 2011 to 2012. While profit margins increased, asset management ratios like inventory turnover worsened, suggesting a build-up in inventory. Liquidity ratios declined as current assets increased more slowly than current liabilities, weakening Joshua & White's short-term financial flexibility. Overall, the company became more profitable but less efficient in its use of assets from 2011 to 2012.
