b. The industry average ratios are as follows:
Compare Gulf Controls with the average firm in the industry. What is the source of the major differences between the Gulf and the industry average ratios?
- Please refer to the following Income Statement and Balance Sheet (see attached picture):
Prepare a vertical analysis for both the income statement and balance sheet.
Write a paragraph comparing the company’s performance with the industry average.
Compute the following ratios and comment on what the results mean when evaluating the company:
Current ratio
Gross profit percentage ratio
Debt ratio
Profit margin ratio
Ratios are mostly calculated using data drawn from the financial statements of a firm. However, another group of ratios, called market value ratios, relate to a firm’s observable market value, stock prices, and book values, integrating information from both the market and the firm’s financial statements.
Consider the case of Cold Goose Metal Works Inc.:
Cold Goose Metal Works Inc. just reported earnings after tax (also called net income) of $8,000,000 and a current stock price of $14.75 per share. The company is forecasting an increase of 25% for its after-tax income next year, but it also expects it will have to issue 1,500,000 new shares of stock (raising its shares outstanding from 5,500,000 to 7,000,000).
If Cold Goose’s forecast turns out to be correct and its price/earnings (P/E) ratio does not change, what does the company’s management expect its stock price to be one year from now? (Round any P/E ratio calculation to four decimal places.)

If a company has a net profit margin of 10%, it means that the company earned a net income of $0.10 for each dollar of sales. If a company’s operating margin increases but its profit margin decreases, it could mean that the company paid more in interest or taxes. An increase in the return on assets ratio implies an increase in the assets a firm owns. If a company issues new common shares but its net income does not increase, return on common equity will increase.arrow_forward
