Answer:

(A) Interest coverage charge ratio= 6.21

(B) Fixed charge coverage = 2.84

(C) Profit margin ratio= 8.57%

(D) Total assets turnover= 1.55

(E) Return on assets= 13.26%

Explanation:

(A) The Interest coverage charge ratio can be calculated as follows= EBIT/Interest expense

= 45,300/7,300

= 6.21

(B) The fixed charge coverage can be calculated as follows

= income before fixed charge + interest/fixed charges + interest

= 45,300+13,300/7,300+13,300

= 58,600/20,600

= 2.84

(C) The profit margin ratio can be calculated as follows

= Net income/sales × 100

= 22,800/266,000 × 100

=0.0857 × 100

= 8.57%

(D) The total assets turnover can be calculated as follows

= Sales/total assets

= 266,000/172,000

= 1.55

(E) The return on assets can be calculated as follows

= Net income/Total assets × 100

= 22,800/172,000 × 100

= 0.13255×100

= 13.26%

The Interest coverage charge ratio can be calculated as follows

  • Interest coverage charge ratio= EBIT/Interest expense
  • Interest coverage charge ratio= 45,300/7,300
  • Interest coverage charge ratio= 6.21

Answer (B)

The fixed charge coverage can be calculated as follows

  • fixed charge coverage = income before fixed charge + interest/fixed charges + interest
  • fixed charge coverage = 45,300+13,300/7,300+13,300
  • fixed charge coverage = 58,600/20,600
  • fixed charge coverage = 2.84

Answer (C)

The profit margin ratio can be calculated as follows

  • profit margin ratio= Net income/sales × 100
  • profit margin ratio= 22,800/266,000 × 100
  • profit margin ratio=0.0857 × 100
  • profit margin ratio= 8.57%

Answer (D)

The total assets turnover can be calculated as follows

  • total assets turnover = Sales/total assets
  • total assets turnover = 266,000/172,000
  • total assets turnover = 1.55

Answer(E)

The return on assets can be calculated as follows

  • return on assets= Net income/Total assets × 100
  • return on assets= 22,800/172,000 × 100
