Paul Sabin organized Sabin Electronics 10 years ago in order to produce and sell several electronic devices on which he had secured patents. Although the company has been fairly profitable, it is now experiencing a severe cash shortage. For this reason, it is requesting a $500,000 long-term loan from Gulfport State Bank, $100,000 of which will be used to bolster the cash account and $400,000 of which will be used to modernize certain key items of equipment. The company's financial statements for the two most recent years follow: SABIN ELECTRONICS Comparative Balance Sheet This Year Last Year $ 63,900 Assets Current assets: Cash Marketable securities Accounts receivable, net Inventory Prepaid expenses Total current assets Plant and equipment, net Total assets 448,800 900,000 18,300 $ 109,000 13,200 218,000 436,000 15,800 1,431,000 1,100,000 792,000 1,008,000 $2,531,000 $1,800,000 Liabilities and Shareholders' Equity Liabilities: Current liabilities Bonds payable, 12% $ 748,000 300,000 $ 540,500 300,000 Total liabilities 1,048,000 840,500 239,000 239,000 Shareholders' equity: Preferred shares, no par ($6; 19.120 shares issued) Common shares, no par (unlimited authorized, 27,000 issued) Retained earnings Total shareholders' equity Total liabilities and shareholders' equity 270,000 974.000 270,000 450,500 1,483,000 959,500 $2,531,000 $1,800,000 Last Year $3,900,000 3,080,000 SABIN ELECTRONICS Comparative Income Statement This Year Sales $4,700,000 Less: Cost of goods sold 3,607,000 Gross margin 1,093,000 Less: Operating expenses 611,000 Net operating income 482,000 Less: Interest expense 36,000 Net income before taxes 446,000 Less: Income taxes (30%) 133,800 Net income 312,200 820,000 487,000 333,000 36,000 297,000 89,100 207,900 Dividends paid: Preferred dividends Common dividends Total dividends paid 20,000 84.600 20,000 66,950 104,600 86,950 Net income retained Retained earnings, beginning of year Retained earnings, end of year 207,600 607,400 120,950 486,450 $ 815,000 $ 607,400 During the past year, the company introduced several new product lines and raised the selling prices on a number of old product lines in order to improve its profit margin.

Assume that the following ratios are typical of firms in the electronics industry: Current ratio Acid-test (quick) ratio Average age of receivables Inventory turnover in days Debt-to-equity ratio Times interest earned Return on total assets Price-earnings ratio 2.5 to 1 1.3 to 1 18 days 60 days 0.90 to 1 6.0 times 13% 12 Required: 1. To assist the Gulfport Bank in making a decision about the loan, compute the following ratios for both this year and last year (Use 365 days a year. Round your intermediate calculations to 1 decimal place. Round Debt-to-equity ratio to 3 decimal places and other answers to 2 decimal places.): a. The amount of working capital. b. The current ratio. c. The acid-test (quick) ratio. d. The average age of receivables (the accounts receivable at the beginning of last year totalled $216,000). e. The inventory turnover in days (the inventory at the beginning of last year totalled $432,000). f. The debt-to-equity ratio. g. The times interest earned. This Year Last Year to 1 to 1 Working capital Current ratio Acid-test ratio Average age of receivables Inventory turnover in days Debt-to-equity ratio Times interest earned : to 1 days days to 1 to 1 days days to 1 times times 2.
