- Please find: Days' sales in inventory, Receivables Turnover, Equity Multipli Use information from the balance sheet and income statement to calculate the following financial ratios and the market value added (MVA). (Whenever balance sheet numbers are used to calculate financial ratios, please ensure that you use the average of the 2019 and 2020 numbers in your calculation. To calculate MVA, you can assume that the average book value number for common stock and paid-in-surplus is the amount that the shareholders initially invested in the company.)arrow_forwardThe attached file contains hypothetical data for working this problem. Goodman Corporation’s and Landry Incorporated’s stock prices and dividends, along with the Market Index, are shown in the file. Stock prices are reported for December 31 of each year, and dividends reflect those paid during the year. The market data are adjusted to include dividends. Use the data given to calculate annual returns for Goodman, Landry, and the Market Index, and then calculate average returns over the five-year period. (Hint: Remember, returns are calculated by subtracting the beginning price from the ending price to get the capital gain or loss, adding the dividend to the capital gain or loss, and dividing the result by the beginning price. Assume that dividends are already included in the index.  Also, you cannot calculate the rate of return for 2015 because you do not have 2014 data.)arrow_forwardUse the extended DuPont equation to provide a breakdown of Computrons projected return on equity.
