     MIXED PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS

    PROBLEM: 6

    ABC Company Ltd provides you following information and balance sheet on 31 December:

    Balance Sheet

    Liabilities

    Amount

    Assets

    Amount

    Equity shares capital @ Rs 100

    200,000

    Fixed assets

    475,000

    6% Preference shares capital

    50,000

    Long term investment

    50,000

    8% Debentures

    50,000

    Other quick assets

    135,000

    Current liabilities

    180,000

    Closing stock

    20,000

    General reserve

    180,000

    Preliminary expenses

    10,000

    P&L account last year

    131,750

    Account receivable

    157,500

    P&L account current year

    55,750

     

     

     

    847,500

     

    847,500

    Other information:

    Fixed assets turnover ratio was 3 times for the year.

    Net profit margin before interest and tax was 10% opening stock sales.

    Company is within 50% tax brackets.

    Working days during the year was 360 days.

    Required:   (a) Amount of sales; (b) Net profit after tax; (c) Average collection period; (d) Current ratio;

    (e) Quick ratio; (f) Debt equity ratio; (g) Return on shareholders’ equity

    [Answer: Sales = Rs 14,25,000; NPAT = Rs 69,250; ACP = 40 days;

    C.R = 1.74: 1; QR = 1.62: 1; DER = 8.2%; ROESF = 11.88%;

    *QA = (Current assets – Closing stock) = Rs 292,500

    SOLUTION:

    Amount of sales

    Fixed assets turnover ratio

    =

    Net sales ÷ Net fixed assets

    3 times

    =

    Sales ÷ 475,000

    Sales

    =

    475,000 x 3

     

    =

    Rs 14,25,000

     

    Net profit after tax

    Net profit before interest and tax (14,25,000 @ 10%)

    142,500

     

    Less: Interest on debentures (50,000 @ 8%)

    40,000

     

    Net profit before tax

    138,500

     

    Less: Tax (138,500 @ 50%)

    69,250

     

    Net profit after tax

    69,250

     

     

     

    Average collection period (ACP)

    = (Account receivable x Days in year) ÷ Credit sales

    = (1,57,500 x 360 days) ÷ 14,25,000

    = 39.78 or 40 days

     

    Current ratio

    Given and working note for current assets

    = Other quick assets + Closing stock + Account receivable

    = 135,000 + 20,000 + 157,500 

    = 312,500

     

    Now,

    Current ratio

    = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities      

    = 312,500 ÷ 180,000

    = 1.74:1

     

    Quick ratio

    Given and working note for quick assets

    = Current assets – Closing stock   = 312,500 – 20,000    = Rs 292,500

    Now,

    Quick ratio = Quick assets ÷ Current liabilities          = 292,500 ÷ 180,000             = 1.62:1

     

    Debt equity ratio (DER)

    Given and working note for shareholders equity

    = Equity shares + Preference shares + General reserve + P&L last year + P&L CY – Preliminary expenses

    = 200,000 + 50,000 + 180,000 + 131,750 + 55,750 – 10,000

    = Rs 607,500

     

    Now, DER 

    = (long-term debts ÷ Shareholders equity) x 100

    = (50,000 ÷ 607,500) x 100

    = 0.082 x 100

    = 8.2%

     

     

    Return on equity shareholders’ fund (ROESF)

    Only equity shareholders fund      = SHE – Preference shares   = 607,500 – 50,000      = Rs 557,500

    Now, ROESF

    = (NPAT – Preference dividend) x 100

    = (69,250 – 3,000) x 100

    = 0.1188 x 100

    = 11.88%

    750,000

     

    750,000

    Additional information:

    (a) Sales during the year Rs 14,00,000.

    (b) Gross profit 40% of sales.

    (c) Net profit after tax Rs 150,000.

    (d) Opening inventory Rs 68,000.

    Required:   (1) Current ratio; (2) Quick ratio; (3) Debt equity ratio; (4) Fixed assets turnover ratio

    (5) Stock turnover ratio; (6) Return on shareholders’ equity

    [Answer: C.R = 4.36: 1; QR = 2.82: 1; DER = 17.8%;

    FATR = 3.5 times; STR = 10 times; ROSE = 26.69%]

    SOLUTION:

    Given and working note:

    Current assets

    = Inventory + Debtors + Rent receivable + cash + prepaid expenses

    = 100,000 + 80,000 + 20,000 + 120,000 + 20,000

    = Rs 340,000

     

    Current liabilities        

    = Creditors + Bills payable + outstanding expenses

    = 30,000 + 40,000 + 8,000

    = Rs 78,000

     

    Quick assets       

    = Current assets – Closing stock – Prepaid

    = 340,000 – 100,000 − 20,000

    = Rs 220,000

     

    Shareholders’ equity (SHE)

    = Equity shares + General reserve + Retained earning – Preliminary expenses

    = 500,000 + 50,000     + 22,000 – 10,000

    = Rs 562,000

     

    Cost of goods sold      

    = Sales – Gross profit

    = 14,00,000 – 14,00,000 @ 40%

    = 14,00,000 – 5,60,000

    = Rs 840,000

     

    Average inventory      

    = (opening stock + closing stock) ÷ 2

    = (68,000 + 100,000) ÷ 2

    = 84,000

     

    Now,

    Current ratio

    = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities      

    = 340,000 ÷ 78,000    

    = 4.36: 1

     

    Quick ratio

    = Quick assets ÷ Current liabilities

    = 222,000 ÷ 78,000    

    = 2.82: 1

     

    Debt equity ratio (DER)

    = Long-term debts ÷ SHE

    = 100,000 ÷ 562,000            

    = 0.178 or 17.8%

     

    Fixed assets turnover ratio (FATR)

    = Sales ÷ Net fixed assets

    = 14,00,000 ÷ 4,00,000

    = 3.5 times

     

    Stock turnover ratio (STR)

    = Cost of goods sold ÷ Average stock

    =  840,000 ÷ 84,000

    = 10 times

     

    Return on shareholders’ equity (ROSE)

    = NPAT ÷ SHE

    = 150,000 ÷ 562,000

    = 0.2669 or 26.69%

    Required:   (a) Gross profit ratio; (b) Net profit ratio; (c) Debt equity ratio; (d) Debt to total capital ratio

    (e) Current ratio; (f) Quick ratio; (g) Total assets turnover ratio; (h) Total capital turnover ratio

    (i) Fixed assets turnover ratio; (j) Stock turnover ratio; (k) Return on assets; (l) Return on shareholder equity

     [Answer: GPR = 40%; NPR = 8.82%; DER = 101.82%; DTCR = 50.45%; C.R = 2.44: 1;

    QR = 1.01: 1; TATR = 1.15 times; TCTR = 1.35 times; FATR = 1.77 times;

    STR = 4.1 times; ROA = 12.81%; ROSE = 27.27%;

    SOLUTION:

    Gross profit ratio (GPR)

    = (Gross profit ÷ Sales) x 100 

    = (136,000 ÷ 340,000) x 100

    = 0.40 x 100

    = 40%

     

    Net profit ratio (NPR)

    NPAT = 60,000 – 60,000 @ 50%   = Rs 30,000*

    Now,

    = (Net profit ÷ Sales) x 100

    = (30,000 ÷ 340,000) x 100

    = 0.0882 x 100

    = 8.82%

     

    Debt equity ratio (DER)

    Shareholder equity (SHE)     

    = Equity shares + General reserve + P&L account – Discount on share

    = 80,000 + 2,000 + 60,000@50% – 2,000

    = Rs 110,000

     

    Now, DER

    = (Long-term debts ÷ Shareholders equity) x 100

    = (112,000 ÷ 110,000) x 100

    = 0.80 x 100

    = 101.82%

     

    Debt to total capital ratio (DTCR)

    Total capital = SHE + Long-term debt    = 110,000 + 112,000      = Rs 222,000

    Now,

    = (Long-term debts ÷ Total capital) x 100

    = (112,000 ÷ 222,000) x 100

    = 0.5045 x 100

    = 50.45%

    101,600

     

     

     

     

     

    Now,

    Current ratio

    = Current assets ÷ Current liabilities

    = 101,600 ÷ 41,600

    = 2.44: 1

     

    Quick ratio

    = Quick assets ÷ Current liabilities

    = 42,000 ÷ 41,600

    = 1.01: 1

     

    Total assets turnover ratio

    = Sales ÷ Total assets

    = 340,000 ÷ 295,000

    = 1.15 times

     

    Total capital turnover ratio

    = Sales ÷ Total capital

    = 340,000 ÷ 252,000

    = 1.35 times

     

    Fixed assets turnover ratio (FATR)

    Fixed assets = premises + plant and machinery = 160,000 + 32,000 = Rs 192,000

    Now,

    = Sales ÷ Fixed assets

    = 340,000 ÷ 192,000

    = 1.77 times

     

    Stock turnover ratio (STR)

    Cost of goods sold      

    Average inventory      

    = Sales – Gross profit           

    = (Opening + Closing) ÷ 2

    = 340,000 – 136,000 

    = (39,800 + 59,600) ÷ 2

    = Rs 204,000

    = 49,700

     

    Now, STR

    = COGS ÷ Average inventory

    = 204,000 ÷ 49,700

    = 4.1 times

     

     

    Return on assets (ROA)

    Net total assets = Total assets ‒ Discount on share = 295,600 ‒ 2,000  = 293,600

     

    Now, ROA

    = (NPAT ÷ Net assets) x 100

    = (30,000 ÷ 293,000) x 100

    = 0.1022 x 100

    = 10.22%

     

    Return on shareholders’ equity (ROSE)

    = (NPAT ÷ Shareholders) x 100

    = (30,000 ÷ 110,000) x 100

    = 0.2143 x 100

    = 27.27%
