Explanation of Solution
Profit margin ratio is calculated by dividing net income by the net sales. It helps in calculating the net income as a percentage of revenue.
Formula used:
Company T | Company G | |
Net income | $112,000 | $42,000 |
Total revenue (sales) | $1,120,000 | $336,000 |
Net profit margin | 10.0% | 12.50% |
- Gross profit percentage helps the company to compare gross margin to the net sales. This ratio tells the profitability at which company sells its inventory.
- Asset turnover ratio calculates the ability of a company to generate sales with the fixed assets. A decline in the ratio means company has overinvested the amount in the fixed assets.
- Return on equity measure the profit earned using capital provided by the shareholders of a firm or in other words we can say that,
ROI measures the effectiveness with which a company uses the assets to create profits. - Earnings per share (EPS) is that part of the profit of the company which is allocated to common stock per share. Earnings per share acts as an indicator of a company's profitability.
- Price earnings ratio is calculated by dividing market value per share with earning per share.This ratio is used by the investors to find the value of company’s share and helps in making the comparison.
- Receivable turnover ratio measures the number of times company collects its accounts receivable.
- Inventory turnover ratio measures the number of times a company has sold its inventory.
- Current ratio is the ratio of current assets to current liabilities
- Debt-to-asset ratio calculates the proportion of total assets financed by the creditors. If the ratio is higher, it means that the financing strategy of the company is risky.
