VE
o Loan $500 to a friend for one year and receive $600
o Deposit $500 (left over) in a back at 3% for two years:

$500(1.03)(1.03) = $530.45

o Deposit $600 received from your friend at 3% per year for a year:

$600(1.03) = $618
Total amount at the end of two years:
??
$530.45 + $618 = $1,148.45

_A
• Current assets = $150,000 + $200,000 + $150,000 + $50,000 + $30,000
= $580,000
• Current liabilities = $50,000 + $100,000 + $80,000 = $230,000
• Working capital = $580,000 - $230,000 = $350,000
PP
• Shareholder’s equity = $100,000 + $150,000 + $150,000 + $70,000
= $470,000

(b) EPS = $500,000/10,000 = $50 per share
RO
(c) Par value = $15; capital surplus = $150,000/10,000 = $15


Market price = $15 + $15 = $30 per share

(a) Shareholder’s equity in 2021 = $700 - $510 = $190(M)
Shareholder’s equity in 2022 = $900 - $640 = $260(M)
D?
(b) Net working capital in 2021 = $100 - $60 = $40(M)
Net working capital in 2022 = $200 - $90 = $110(M)

(c) The income taxes in year 2022:
??
($2,350 - $1,130-$420-$210) *0.35 = $206.5(M)

(d) $383.50 + $420=$803.50 (M)

ROE (= Net income/Equity) 26.03% 22.29%

(= Net income + interest expense (1-tax 17.34% 12.59%
rate)/Average total assets)

(b) Company A has performed better in terms of profitability.

(c) If two companies were merged, the impact on the results of ROE could be
IA
positive under the situation where the Company A leads the acquisition using a
stock swap instead of issuing new stocks for M&A cost. If Company A uses a
stock swap, the stock value wouldn’t be decreased in terms of scarcity.

Inventory turnover ratio (2021) = Sales/Average inventory balance
= $3,776,395 / ($202,794 + $231,313)×0.5

Inventory turnover ratio (2022) = 15.6 times

This ratio shows how many times the inventory of a firm is sold and replaced over
a specific period. From the data, Metronix was holding more stocks of inventory

than last year; having more inventories on stock is unproductive.
