    The first ratio calculated was current ratio. This is done by dividing current liabilities by current assets. Current ratio is important because it shows the business’s ability to pay back the current liabilities with the current assets that they have available to them. At the end of 2011, the current ratio was at 1.86. In 2012, this ratio dropped to 1.80. The industry ranges from 3.1 (showing a strong ability to pay back liabilities) to 1.4 (showing a weak ability to pay back liabilities) with a median of 2.1. Company G is below the median showing a weakness in this category.…

    The acid-test ratio is an indication of a company’s ability to pay all of its current liabilities if they came due immediately. The formula for calculating this starts by adding cash, short term investments, and net current receivables together and driving them by current liabilities. DHG has an acid-test ratio of .39 for year 11. This compared to the acid test ratio of .61 for year 10 and the industry quartiles of 1.6, .9, and .6. This ratio is decreasing and indicates a weakness for DHG. Management again needs to investigate ways to increase assets and reduce liabilities to improve this ratio and the company’s ability to pay its liabilities.…

    “Acid Test Ratio” shows us whether the entity could pay all its current liabilities if they came due immediately. It’s calculated by the available cash plus accounts receivable plus short–term investments divided by current liabilities. In 2011, the acid test ratio was 0.64. By 2012, it decreased to 0.43. Even though the acid-test ratio is less than 1 which rates in the lower third quartile in the industry of 1.6, 0.9 to 0.6, it indicates an issue with repaying current liabilities. This could stem from rapid expansion of inventory with the intentions of increasing sales. While it is a weakness and of particular concern, a rise in the ratio should be seen by 2013 due to the increase of suggested sales.…

    All the three bases are used to find the return earned with respective to sales as well as investment made. When the profit is compared with sales, it is called as the net profit margin. When the profit is compared with assets, it is called as return earned on total investment and when profit is compared with stockholders’ equity, it is called as return on equity. All these are profitability ratios and help to analyze the profitability at a particular period with respect to various bases. The trend in these ratios may not always move in the same direction. For example, return on assets may increase from one period to another, but not necessarily the return on equity. A cause for this may be due to change in capital structure and mix of debt and equity.…
