A49.
(1) Solvency ratios
a. Debt to equity ratio = 0.91
b. Debt to assets ratio = 0.48
c. Long-term debt to assets ratio = 0.25
d. Times interest earned ratio = 6.20
e. Assets to equity ratio = 1.92

(2) Activity ratios
a. Assets turnover ratio = 1.21
b. Inventory turnover ratio = 5.03
c. Accounts receivable turnover ratio = 8.65
d. Accounts payable turnover ratio = 7.55

[Note]
(1) Solvency ratios

a. Debt to equity ratio
= Total liabilities / Total stockholders’ equity
= $3,100,000 / $3,400,000 = 0.91

b. Debt to assets ratio
= Total liabilities / Total assets
= $3,100,000 / $6,500,000 = 0.48

c. Long-term debt to assets ratio
= Long-term liabilities / Total assets
= $1,620,000 / $6,500,000 = 0.25

d. Times interest earned ratio
= Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) / Interest expense
= (Net income + Interest expense + Tax expense) / Interest expense
= ($890,000 + $250,000 + $410,000) / $250,000
= $1,550,000 / $250,000 = 6.20

e. Assets to equity ratio
= Average total assets / Average stockholders’ equity
= $6,250,000 / $3,260,000 = 1.92

(2) Activity ratios

a. Assets turnover ratio
= Sales / Average total assets
= $7,550,000 / $6,250,000 = 1.21

b. Inventory turnover ratio
= Cost of goods sold / Average inventory
= $4,830,000 / $960,000 = 5.03

c. Accounts receivable turnover ratio
= Credit sales / Average accounts receivable
= $6,400,000 / $740,000 = 8.65

d. Accounts payable turnover ratio
= Credit purchases / Average accounts payable
= $4,720,000 / $625,000 = 7.55
