Hide FeedbackShow All FeedbackPartially CorrectCheck My Work Feedback1a.Working capital, which uses two elements of the classified balance sheet, is the amount by which current assets exceed current liabilities. It is an important measure of liquidity because current liabilities must be satisfied within one year or one operating cycle, whichever is longer, and current assets are used to pay the current liabilities. Thus, the working capital is what is on hand to continue business operations.

  Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities


1b.The current ratio is the ratio of current assets to current liabilities. It is computed as follows:

  Current Ratio = Current Assets
Current Liabilities


Check figure: 2014 current ratio = 2.3 
2a.The profit margin shows the percentage of each sales dollar that results in net income. It is an indication of how well a company is controlling its costs: the lower its costs, the higher its profit margin. It is computed as follows:

  Profit Margin = Net Income
Revenues


2b.The asset turnover ratio measures how efficiently assets are used to produce sales. In other words, how much revenue is generated by each dollar of assets? It is computed as follows:

  Asset Turnover = Revenues
Average Total Assets


2c.The return on assets ratio relates net income to average total assets. It is computed as follows:

  Return on Assets = Net Income
Average Total Assets


2d.The debt to equity ratio shows the proportion of a company’s assets financed by creditors and the proportion financed by the owner. It is computed as follows: 

  Debt to Equity Ratio = Total Liabilities
Total Equity


2e.Return on equity is the ratio of net income to average owner’s equity. It is computed as follows: 

  Return on Equity = Net Income
Average Owner's Equity


Check figure: 2014 return on equity = 15.6%Post Submission FeedbackSolution
