Following are the accounting ratios. For each one you have to tell the effect (increase, decrease or no change) of the transactions that are given below. No calculations or data is required to solve this question. You just have to tell the affect of the transactions given on these ratios by assuming numbers.

For example:

1st transaction i.e. purchase of inventory on cash tells us that cash will decrease and inventory will increase. Lets assume that inventory was purchased for rs 500 which means cash was decreased by 500. Assuming like this we have to tell the effect of these transactions (whether the debt to total assets ratio will increase, decrease or remain the same due to the increase in Inventory and a decrease in cash)
