### Financial Ratios Analysis

#### a. Working Capital

**Working capital** is calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Working capital} = \text{Current assets} - \text{Current liabilities} \]

|                      | 2016  | 2015  |
|----------------------|-------|-------|
| Current assets (a)   | 15025 | 15587 |
| Current liabilities (b) | 5358  | 6332  |
| Working capital      | 9667  | 9255  |

#### b. Current Ratio

**Current ratio** is calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Current ratio} = \frac{\text{Current assets}}{\text{Current liabilities}} \]

|                | 2016  | 2015  |
|----------------|-------|-------|
| Current assets (a) | 15025 | 15587 |
| Current liabilities (b) | 5358  | 6332  |
| Current ratio | 2.8   | 2.46  |

#### c. Quick Ratio

**Quick ratio** is calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Quick ratio} = \frac{\text{Current assets} - \text{Inventories}}{\text{Current liabilities}} \]

|                | 2016  | 2015  |
|----------------|-------|-------|
| Current assets (a) | 15025 | 15587 |
| Inventories (d) | 4838  | 4327  |
| Current liabilities (c) | 5358  | 6332  |
| Quick ratio | 1.9   | 1.78  |

#### d. Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio

**Accounts receivable turnover ratio** is calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Accounts receivable turnover ratio} = \frac{\text{Sales}}{\text{Average accounts receivable}} \]

\[ \text{Average accounts receivable} = \frac{\text{Beg. Acc receivable} + \text{End. Acc. Receivable}}{2} \]

|                      | 2016  | 2015  |
|----------------------|-------|-------|
| Revenues             | 32376 | 30601 |
| Beg. accounts receivable | 3358  | 3117  |
| End. accounts receivable |
