Using the information from the financial statements, complete a comprehensive ratio analysis for
Modern Appliances Corporation.

a. Calculate these liquidity ratios: current and quick ratios.

Current ratio = Current asset/Current liability

= 2,856,516,992/1,578,337,233

= 1.81
Quick ratios= Quick asset/Current Liability

= (2,856,516,992-981,870,990)/1,578,337,233

= 1.18

b. Calculate these efficiency ratios: inventory turnover, accounts receivable turnover, DSO.

Inventory turnover = COGS/Total inventory

= 3,432,925,255/981,870,990

=3.50

Accounts receivable turnover= Total sales / Accounts receivable

= 5,398,412,000/1,046,612,233

=5.16

DSO = 365/Accounts receivable turnover

= 365/5.16

= 70.74

c. Calculate these asset turnover ratios: total asset turnover, fixed asset turnover.

Total asset turnover = Total sales/ Total assets

= 5,398,412,000/4,394,643,738

= 1.23

Fixed asset turnover = Total sales/Total Fixed asset

= 5,398,412,000/754,660,275

= 7.15

d. Calculate these leverage ratios: total debt ratio, debt-to-equity ratio, equity multiplier.

Debt ratio = Total debt/Total asset

= (1,578,337,233 + 1,200,691,565)/4,394,643,738

= 0.63

Debt to equity = Total debt/Total equity

= (1,578,337,233 + 1,200,691,565)/(397,407,352 + 1,218,207,588)

= 1.72

Equity multiplier = Total asset/Total equity

= 4,394,643,738/(397,407,352 + 1,218,207,588)
= 2.72

e. Calculate these coverage ratios: times interest earned, cash coverage.

Times interest earned = EBIT/Interest

= 629,247,359/35,826,000

= 17.56

Cash coverage ratio = (EBIT + depreciation)/Interest

= (629,247,359 + 299,928,155)/35,826,000

= 25.94

f. Calculate these profitability ratios: gross profit margin, net profit margin, ROA, ROE.

Gross profit = Total gross profit/ Total sales

= (1,965,486,745/5,398,412,000) x 100

= 36.41

Net profit margin = Net profit/ Total sales

= (430,316,805/5,398,412,000) x 100

= 7.97

ROA = Net profit/Total assets

= (430,316,805/4,394,643,738) x 100

= 9.79

ROE = Net profit/Total equity

= [430,316,805/(397,407,352 + 1,218,207,588)] x 100

= 26.63

g. Use the DuPont identity, after calculating the component ratios, to compute ROEoss

ROE using DU PONT = Net profit margin x equity multiplier x asset turnover

= [(430,316,805/5,398,412,000) x 100] x [4,394,643,738/(397,407,352 + 1,218,207,588)] x


(5,398,412,000/4,394,643,738)

= 7.97 x 2.72 x 1.23

=26.66
