Explanation / Answer

Answer a-1.

Year 1:

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold
Gross Profit = $606,000 - $353,000
Gross Profit = $253,000

Gross Profit Percentage = Gross Profit / Sales
Gross Profit Percentage = $253,000 / $606,000
Gross Profit Percentage = 42%

Year 2:

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold
Gross Profit = $756,000 - $417,000
Gross Profit = $339,000

Gross Profit Percentage = Gross Profit / Sales
Gross Profit Percentage = $339,000 / $756,000
Gross Profit Percentage = 45%

Answer a-2.

Year 1:

Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold / Average Inventory
Inventory Turnover = $353,000 / $146,000
Inventory Turnover = 2.4 times

Year 2:

Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold / Average Inventory
Inventory Turnover = $417,000 / $156,000
Inventory Turnover = 2.7 times

Answer a-3.

Year 1:

Accounts Receivable Turnover = Sales / Average Receivables
Accounts Receivable Turnover = $606,000 / $100,000
Accounts Receivable Turnover = 6.1 times

Year 2:

Accounts Receivable Turnover = Sales / Average Receivables
Accounts Receivable Turnover = $756,000 / $150,000
Accounts Receivable Turnover = 5.0 times

Answer b.

Gross Profit Rate = Positive Trend
Inventory Turnover = Positive Trend
Accounts Receivable Turnover = Negative Trend
Growth in Net Sales = Positive Trend
