PROBLEM:01
The formula which breaks down the return on equity into three component parts is referred to as DuPont formula.

PROBLEM:02
The Purple Martin has annual sales of $687,400, total debt of $210,000, total equity of $365,000, and a profit margin of 4.80 percent. What is the return on assets?

ROA = net income / total assets
ROA = (687400 * 4.80) / (210000 + 365000)
ROA = 5.74

PROBLEM:03
The Meat Market has $747,000 in sales. The profit margin is 4.1 percent and the firm has 7,500 shares of stock outstanding. The market price per share is $22. What is the price-earnings ratio?

P/E = market value per share / earnings per share
P/E = 22 / (747000 * 4.1 / 7500)
P/E = .0539

PROBLEM:04
Beach Wear has current liabilities of $350,000, a quick ratio of 1.65, inventory turnover of 3.2, and a current ratio of 2.9. What is the cost of goods sold?

CA = current ratio * current liablities
CA = 2.9 * 350000
CA = 1015000

QR = (CA - Inventory) / CL
1.65 = (1015000 - Inventory) / 350000
Inventory = 437500

Cost of goods sold = IT * T
Cost of goods sold = 3.2 * 4375000
Cost of goods sold = 1400000
