Given the following income statement and balance sheet for a company:

Balance Sheet

Assets Year 2006 Year 2007

Cash 200 450

Accounts Receivable 600 660

Inventory 500 550

Total CA 1300 1660

Plant, prop. equip 1000 1580

Total Assets 2600 3240

Liabilities

Accounts Payable 500 550

Long term debt 700 1052

Total liabilities 1200 1602

Equity

Common Stock 400 538

Retained Earnings 1000 1100

Total Liabilities & Equity 2600 3240

Income Statement

Sales 3000

Cost of Goods Sold (1000)

Gross Profit 2000

SG&A 500

Interest Expense 151

EBT 1349

Taxes (30%) 405

Net Income 944

Which of the following is closest to the company's return on equity (ROE)?

0.29.

1.83.

0.62.

There are several ways to approach this question but the easiest way is to recognize that ROE = NI / average equity thus ROE = 944 / 1,519 = 0.622.

If using the traditional DuPont, ROE = (NI / Sales) × (Sales / Assets) × (Assets / Equity):

ROE = (944 / 3,000) × (3,000 / 2,920) × (2,920 / 1,519) = 0.622

The 5-part Dupont formula gives the same result:

ROE = (net income / EBT)(EBT / EBIT)(EBIT / revenue)(revenue / total assets)(total assets / total equity)

Where EBIT = EBT + interest = 1,349 + 151 = 1,500

ROE 2007 = (944 / 1,349)(1,349 / 1,500)(1,500 / 3,000)(3,000 / 2,920)(2,920 / 1,519) = 0.622

Comparative income statements for E Company and G Company for the year ended December 31 show the following (in $ millions):

	E Company	G Company
Sales	70	90
Cost of Goods Sold	(30)	(40)
Gross Profit	40	50
Sales and Administration	(5)	(15)
Depreciation	(5)	(10)
Operating Profit	30	25
Interest Expense	(20)	(5)
Earnings Before Taxes	10	20
Income Taxes	(4)	(8)
Earnings after Taxes	6	12

The financial risk of E Company, as measured by the interest coverage ratio, is:

A)	higher than G Company's because its interest coverage ratio is less than one-third of G Company's.

B)	higher than G Company's because its interest coverage ratio is less than G Company's, but at least one-third of G Company's.

C)	lower than G Company's because its interest coverage ratio is at least three times G Company's.

E Company’s interest coverage ratio (EBIT / interest expense) is (30 / 20) = 1.5.

G Company’s interest coverage ratio is (25 / 5) = 5.0. Higher interest coverage means greater ability to cover required interest and lease payments. Note that 1.5 / 5.0 = 0.30, which means the interest coverage for E Company is less than 1/3 that of G Company.

Assume that Q-Tell Incorporated is in the communications industry, which has an average receivables turnover ratio of 16 times. If the Q-Tell’s receivables turnover is less than that of the industry, Q-Tell’s average receivables collection period is most likely:

20 days.

25 days.

12 days.

Average receivables collection period = 365 / receivables turnover, which is 22.81 days for the industry (= 365 / 16). If Q-Tell’s receivables turnover is less than 16, its average days collection period must be greater that 22.81 days.

Selected financial information gathered from the Matador Corporation follows:

	2007	2006	2005
Average debt	$792,000	$800,000	$820,000
Average equity	$215,000	$294,000	$364,000
Return on assets	5.9%	6.6%	7.2%
Quick ratio	0.3	0.5	0.6
Sales	$1,650,000	$1,452,000	$1,304,000
Cost of goods sold	$1,345,000	$1,176,000	$1,043,000

Using only the data presented, which of the following statements is most correct?

A)	Leverage has declined.

B)	Return on equity has improved.

C)	Gross profit margin has improved.

Leverage increased as measured by the debt-to-equity ratio from 2.25 in 2005 to 3.68 in 2007. Gross profit margin declined from 20.0% in 2005 to 18.5% in 2007. Return on equity has improved since 2005. One measure of ROE is ROA × financial leverage. Financial leverage (assets / equity) can be derived by adding 1 to the debt-to-equity ratio. In 2005, ROE was 23.4% [7.2% ROA × (1 + 2.25 debt-to-equity)]. In 2007, ROE was 27.6% [5.9% ROA × (1 + 3.68 debt-to-equity)].
