Step-by-step solution

9 steps

Here are the calculations based on the provided financial statements:

Part a· 2 steps

Rate of stock turnover

  1. Calculate the average stock.

    Average Stock=Opening Stock+Closing Stock2\text{Average Stock} = \frac{\text{Opening Stock} + \text{Closing Stock}}{2}

    Average Stock=$63,000+$50,3002=$113,3002=$56,650\text{Average Stock} = \frac{\$63,000 + \$50,300}{2} = \frac{\$113,300}{2} = \$56,650

  2. Calculate the rate of stock turnover.

    Rate of Stock Turnover=Cost of Goods SoldAverage Stock\text{Rate of Stock Turnover} = \frac{\text{Cost of Goods Sold}}{\text{Average Stock}}

    Rate of Stock Turnover=$227,700$56,650=4.02 times\text{Rate of Stock Turnover} = \frac{\$227,700}{\$56,650} = 4.02 \text{ times} The rate of stock turnover is 4.02 times\boxed{\text{4.02 times}}.

Part b· 1 step

Gross profit margin

  1. Apply the gross profit margin formula.

    Gross Profit Margin=Gross ProfitSales×100%\text{Gross Profit Margin} = \frac{\text{Gross Profit}}{\text{Sales}} \times 100\%

    Gross Profit Margin=$190,650$418,350×100%=0.4557×100%=45.57%\text{Gross Profit Margin} = \frac{\$190,650}{\$418,350} \times 100\% = 0.4557 \times 100\% = 45.57\% The gross profit margin is 45.57%\boxed{\text{45.57\%}}.

Part c· 2 steps

Current ratio

  1. Calculate total current assets.

    Current Assets=Stock+Debtors+Cash\text{Current Assets} = \text{Stock} + \text{Debtors} + \text{Cash}

    Current Assets=$50,300+$32,500+$18,350=$101,150\text{Current Assets} = \$50,300 + \$32,500 + \$18,350 = \$101,150

  2. Apply the current ratio formula.

    Current Ratio=Current AssetsCurrent Liabilities\text{Current Ratio} = \frac{\text{Current Assets}}{\text{Current Liabilities}}

    Current Ratio=$101,150$41,750=2.42:1\text{Current Ratio} = \frac{\$101,150}{\$41,750} = 2.42:1 The current ratio is 2.42:1\boxed{\text{2.42:1}}.

Part d· 2 steps

Acid test ratio

  1. Calculate quick assets (current assets excluding stock).

    Quick Assets=Current Assets−Stock\text{Quick Assets} = \text{Current Assets} - \text{Stock}

    Quick Assets=$101,150−$50,300=$50,850\text{Quick Assets} = \$101,150 - \$50,300 = \$50,850

  2. Apply the acid test ratio formula.

    Acid Test Ratio=Quick AssetsCurrent Liabilities\text{Acid Test Ratio} = \frac{\text{Quick Assets}}{\text{Current Liabilities}}

    Acid Test Ratio=$50,850$41,750=1.22:1\text{Acid Test Ratio} = \frac{\$50,850}{\$41,750} = 1.22:1 The acid test ratio is 1.22:1\boxed{\text{1.22:1}}.

Part e· 2 steps

Return on capital employed

  1. Determine the capital employed.

    Capital employed can be calculated as Fixed Assets + Working Capital, or as Total Equity + Non-current Liabilities. In this case, the closing capital (equity) is given as $129,100.

    Capital Employed=Fixed Assets+(Current Assets−Current Liabilities)\text{Capital Employed} = \text{Fixed Assets} + (\text{Current Assets} - \text{Current Liabilities})

    Capital Employed=$69,700+($101,150−$41,750)\text{Capital Employed} = \$69,700 + (\$101,150 - \$41,750) Capital Employed=$69,700+$59,400=$129,100\text{Capital Employed} = \$69,700 + \$59,400 = \$129,100

  2. Apply the return on capital employed formula.

    Return on Capital Employed=Net ProfitCapital Employed×100%\text{Return on Capital Employed} = \frac{\text{Net Profit}}{\text{Capital Employed}} \times 100\%

    Return on Capital Employed=$40,000$129,100×100%=0.3098×100%=30.98%\text{Return on Capital Employed} = \frac{\$40,000}{\$129,100} \times 100\% = 0.3098 \times 100\% = 30.98\% The return on capital employed is 30.98%\boxed{\text{30.98\%}}.
