Sales    1,000,000     
Cogs -     600,000  [opening stock - closing stock]
Gross profit       400,000     
Gross profit percentage = 40% [Gross Profit/Sales]
Less: Expenses    
Depreciation -       80,000     
Advertising -       60,000     
Rent -       15,000     
Salaries -       56,000     
Commissions -         5,000     
Other Expenses -         7,000     
Net Profit       177,000     
Net profit percentage 17.70% [Net profit/Sales]
Current Ratio  Current Asset =149,000 
   Current Liabilities = 47,000 
Current Ratio 3.17 [149,000/47,000]
Acid Test  Quick asset = 134,000 
   Current liabilities=47,000 
Acid Test Ratio 2.85 [134,000/47,000]
ROCE  EBIT[Earnings before interests and taxes]/Capital Employed 
  41.64% [ 177,000/425,000]

 

 

Step-by-step explanation

Current Assets :  Inventory 15,000 + Investments 14,000 + Cash and Cash Equivalents 100,000 + Accounts receivable 20,000 [Please note that I assume that Investments are a short term investment, if the problem says otherwise, put it on the Noncurrent Assets]

 

Quick Asset: Investments 14,000 + Cash and Cash Equivalents 100,000 + Accounts receivable 20,000 [Remove the non liquid asset which is the inventory, liquid assets are cash, receivable, short term investments and marketable securities]

 

Current Liabilitiy : Accounts Payable 30,000 + Notes Payable 10,000 + Account expenses 7,000 [I assumed accounts expenses is your accrual account, if this is not an accrual account please remove this one. Since the problem is vague, i assume this is accrual account. Should be correct since if I follow the formula on Capital Employed, we get the same answer.]

 

 

There are 2 ways to get the CAPITAL EMPLOYED

 

 1. ) Capital Employed = Total Asset - Current liabilities 
 2. )Capital employed = Total Shareholders Equity + Long term liabilities 
     
 Checking   Total Asset  472,000
   Current Liabilities  -47,000
  Capital Employed 425,000
     
 Checking  Total Shareholders Equity 225,000
  Long term liabilities 200,000
  Capital Employed 425,000

Total Asset : Add the current asset we got earlier, then add the Land 24,300 + Equipment 45,000 + Intangible Asset 3,700 + Building and improvements 250,000

 

Total Shareholders Equity: Additional Paid in Capital 20,000 + Common Stock 10,000 + Retained Earnings 195,000

 

As you can see, even if we used different formulas we still come up with the same answer which is 425,000.

 

PLEASE NOTE:

Im kinda confused about the Gross profit margin , gross profit percentage margin, net profit margin and net profit percentage margin. These terms are synonymous with each other, maybe the problem is referring to the numbers [gross profit margin and net profit margin] and not the percentages.
