Explanation of Solution

  1. 1. Quick ratio: It is a ratio used to determine a company’s ability to pay back its current liabilities by liquid assets that are current assets except inventory and prepaid expenses.

Quick ratio=Quick AssetsCurrent Liabilities

  1. 2. Current ratio: Current ratio is one of the liquidity ratios, which measures the capacity of the company to meet its short-term obligations using its current assets. Current ratio is calculated by using the formula:

Current ratio=Current AssetsCurrent Liabilities

  1. 3. Receivables turnover ratio: Receivables turnover ratio is mainly used to evaluate the collection process efficiency. It helps the company to know the number of times the accounts receivable is collected in a particular time period. This ratio is determined by dividing credit sales and sales return.

Receivables turnover=Net credit salesAverage accounts receivables

  1. 4. Inventory Turnover Ratio: This ratio is a financial metric used by a company to quantify the number of times inventory is used or sold during the accounting period. It is calculated by using the formula:

Inventory turnover=Cost of goods soldAverage inventory

  1. 5. Debt–to-equity ratio: The debt-to-equity ratio indicates that the company’s debt as a proportion of its stockholders’ equity. The debt-to-equity ratio is calculated using the formula:

    Debt-to-equity ratio=Total liabilitiesTotal stockholders' equity

  2. 6. Gross profit percentage: The percentage of gross profit generated by every dollar of net sales is referred to as gross profit percentage. This ratio measures the profitability of a company by quantifying the amount of income earned from sales revenue generated after cost of goods sold are paid. The higher the ratio, the more ability to cover operating expenses. It is computed by the formula:

Gross profit percentage=Gross profit on salesNet sales

  1. 7. Return on sales: It is one of the profitability ratios. Return on sales ratio is used to measure the percentage of net income that is being generated per dollar of revenue or sales.

Net margin=Net incomeNet sales

  1. 8. Return on assets: Return on assets is the financial ratio which determines the amount of net income earned by the business with the use of total assets owned by it. It indicates the magnitude of the company’s earnings with relative to its total assets. Return on investment is calculated as follows:

Return on investments=Net income Average total assets

Analysis of ratios:

The computed ratios are compared in the following ways:

  1. 1. Quick ratio: The quick ratio of Incorporation AI is 1.43 which is higher than the industry average of 0.3. This reveals that the liquidity position of Incorporation AI is higher than the industry average.
  2. 2. Current ratio: The computed ratio is 2.31:1 which is much more than the industry average of 1.9 times. This shows that the short-term liquidity position of Incorporation AI is much better than its industry.
  3. 3. Accounts receivable ratio: The accounts receivable turnover of Incorporation AI 4.83 times which is much less than the industry average of 5.9 times. This shows that Incorporation AI has managed its receivables inefficiently.

Explanation of Solution

Dividends per share: The amount of dividends paid to each common stockholder is referred to as dividends per share. This ratio is calculated by using the given formula:

Dividends per share = Dividends Number of common stock outstanding

Dividends payout ratio: The financial metric which measures the dividends declared per common share in relation to the earnings per share of a company is referred to as dividend payout ratio. This ratio is calculated by using the given formula:

Dividend payout ratio = Annual dividend per shareEarnings per share

Compute dividends per share for Incorporation AI for the year 2013.

Dividends per share = Dividends Number of common stock outstanding=$2,600,0002,000,000 shares=$1.3 per share (1)

Compute dividend payout ratio.

Given: Earnings per share = $4.15

Dividend payout ratio = Annual dividend per share (1)Earnings per share=$1.3$4.15×100=31.32%

Hence, the dividends per share of Incorporation AI are $1.3 per share and dividend payout ratio is 31.32%.

Explanation of Solution

Price/Earnings Ratio: The price/earnings ratio shows the market value of the amount invested to earn $1 by a company. It is major tool used by investors for making decisions related to the investment in a company.

Price/Earnings Ratio=Market Price per Share Earnings per Share

Compute price earnings ratio of Incorporation AI for 2013.

Price/Earnings = Market price per shareEarnings per share=$62.25$4.15=15 times

Dividend yield: Dividend yield ratio indicates how much percentage of share prices a company pays out in the form of dividends price. The formula to calculate the dividend yield percentage is as follows:

Dividend yield= Dividends per shareStock price×100

Compute dividends yield ratio for Incorporation AI for the year 2013.

Given: Market price per share: $62.25

Dividend yield=Dividends per shareMarket price per share=$1.3(1)$62.25×100=2.08%

Hence, the price earnings ratio of Incorporation AI is 15 times and dividend yield ratio is 2.08%.
