ABC Pharmacy - What can two new pharmacy owners learn about their business from its financial statements?

It has been a little more than two years since Angela Ramirez and Martin Bull purchased the ABC Pharmacy from Frank Strand, the previous owner and founder, who started the pharmacy in 1963. The two had spent many long hours in the store and had learned many valuable lessons as business owners that they had not had the opportunity to learn as employees of large chain pharmacies where they had previously worked.

Ramirez and Bull just received an e-mail from their accountant that contained the balance sheet and the in the income statement for ABC Pharmacy for the fiscal year that had just ended. The financial statements appear below.
