Explanation / Answer

Pepper Industries

Income Statement

For the year ended March 31

Working Notes:

(1) Current Ratio = Current assets / Current Liabilities = 2.30

Acid test ratio = Quick assets / Current Liabilities = 1.10

Difference between the two multiplied by current liabilities gives the amount of year ending inventory = 200,000 * (2.3-1.1) = 240,000

(2) Now Average Inventory = 360,000 + 240,000 / 2 = 300,000

Cost of goods sold = Average Inventory * Inventory Turnover = 300,000 * 9 = 2,700,000

(3) Times interest earned = Net Operating Income / Annual interest expense

So, Net opertaing income = TIE * Interest Expense = 9*54,000 = 486,000

Balance sheet

March 31

Working Notes:

(1) No. of shares outstanding = Net Income / EPS = 259,200 / 6.48 = 40,000 shares

Common stock = 40,000 * 2.80 = 112,000

(2) Bonds payable = 54,000 / 10% = 540,000

(3) Average accounts receivable = Net sales / Accounts receivable turnover = 3,900,000 / 20 = 195,000

Total accounts receivables = 195,000 * 2 = 390,000

Accounts receivable at the end = Total - Opening balance = 390,000 - 250,000 = 140,000

(4) Average Total assets = Net Income / Return on total assets = 259,200 / 18% = 1,440,000

Total assets = 1,440,000 * 2 = 2,880,000

Assets at the end = Total - Opening balance = 2,880,000 - 1,575,000 = 1,305,000

(5) Rest amounts are just balancing figures.
