A Company has the following financial information for its first year in business:
cash of $242, accounts receivable of $850, inventory of $820, net fixed assets of $3,408, accounts payable of $700, short-term notes payable of $740, long-term liabilities of $1,100, common stock of $1,160, retained earnings of $1,620, net sales of $2,768, cost of goods sold of $1,210, depreciation of $360, interest expense of $160, taxes of $312, addition to retained earnings of $508, and dividends paid of $218.
8. What is the interest coverage ratio?
9. What will be the return on Equity if the Net sales increased to $3000? Interpret your results
8. interest coverage ratio = EBIT/Interest
EBIT= Divident + addition to retain earnings + taxes +interest
=218+508+312+160=1198
interest coverage ratio =1198/160 =7.4875
9.Return on equity = net income / (common stock +retained earning)
Net income = addition to retained earnings+dividend paid
Here from net sales increased from 2,768$ to 3000$
Increased revenue from sales 3000-2768=232 (this also to be included in balance statement in addition earnings)
Net income= 508+232+218= 958
Return on equity = 958/1,160+1,620=.2929 or 20.29%
