Putting “yum” on people’s faces around the world is the mission of Yum! Brands, Inc. Yum! was spun off from PepsiCo in 1997. A spin-off occurs when a company separates its operations into two or more distinct companies. The company was originally composed of KFC, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell and was operated as a part of PepsiCo prior to the spin-off. In 2015, Yum! had total assets of $8.08 billion, long-term debt of $3.05 billion, and total liabilities of $7.10 billion. Yum!’s income before interest and taxes in 2015 was $1.92 billion. Its average interest rate on long-term debt was approximately 4.4 percent.

Exhibit 1.26 presents balance sheets for Starbucks for the years ending 20092012. Exhibit 1.27 presents its income statements and Exhibit 1.28 presents the statement of cash flows for the same years. Exhibit 1.29 presents common-size balance sheets and Exhibit 1.30 presents common-size income statements for Starbucks. Before beginning preparation of Integrative Case 4.1, we recommend that you review Integrative Case 1.1 in Chapter 1. Part A of Integrative Case 4.1 analyzes changes in the profitability of Starbucks. REQUIRED a. Exhibit 4.43 presents profitability ratios for Starbucks for fiscals 2010 and 2011. Using the financial statement data in Exhibits 1.26 and 1.27, compute the values of these ratios for fiscal 2012. The income tax rate is 35%. For accounts receivable turnover, use only specialty revenues for the numerator, because the accounts receivable are primarily related to licensing and food service operations, not the retail operations. Use cost of sales, including occupancy costs, for the numerator of the inventory turnover, because Starbucks does not disclose separately the cost of products sold (the appropriate numerator) and occupancy costs. b. What are the most important reasons for Starbucks ROA fluctuation during the three-year period? Analyze the financial ratios to the maximum depth possible with the information given. Using the nomenclature from the schematic in Exhibit 4.21 (page 298), Exhibit 4.44 (page 320) provides information for analyzing profitability at Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. Exhibit 4.44 presents additional information for Starbucks at a business segment level to permit analysis at Level 4. Differences between the sum of segment expenses and total expenses reflect corporate-level expenses not allocated to the individual segments. Additionally, if necessary, access Starbucks annual report or form 10-K, which you should be able to access at the companys investor relations website. c. What are the most important reasons for Starbucks ROCE fluctuation during the three-year period? Exhibit 4.43arrow_forward
