Explanation:

a. Current Ratio

Current Ratio = Current Asset/Current Liability

Definition : Current assets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory,marketable securities,and other liquid assets that can be readily converted to cash.

Definition : Current liabilities are a company's debts or obligations that are due within one year, appearing on the company's balance sheet.

Note: Here, in absence of information, mortgage payable and bonds payable are treated as non-current liabilities and marketable securities are treated as current assets.

Here,

Current Assets = Cash (14800) + Marketable Securities (7500) + Accounts Receivable (12980) + Inventory (11100) = $ 46380 (Refer Note).

Current Liabilities = Accounts Payable (8120) + Current Notes Payable (3360) = $11480 (Refer Note).

Current Ratio = 46380/11480 = 4.04

b. Earning Per Share

Earninigs Per Share = Net Income/No. of share outstanding

Earnings Per Share = $15100/860shares = $ 17.56/per share

c. Quick (acid test) ratio

Quick Ratio compares Total amount of cash+marketable securities+accounts receivable to the amount of current liabilities.

Current Liability = $ 11480 (as computed above in point (a.)) (Also refer note in point (a.) above)

Quick Ratio = (14800+7500+12980)/11480 = 3.07

d. Return on Investment

Return on Investment = Net income / cost of investment * 100

Note: The term "cost of investment" does not have a universally or uniformly accepted definition. Some deifinition includes long term debt into consideration while other ignores the same in its calculation. Here, Long Term debt is taken into consideration for the calculation of "cost of investment" in return on investment.

Cost of Investment = Mortgage Payable (4800) + Bonds Payable (21120) + Common Stock (114000) + Retained Earnings (53680) = $193600.

Return on Investment = 15100/193600 * 100 = 7.80%

e. Return on Equity

Return on Equity = Net Income / Shareholders' Equity * 100

Shareholders' Equity = Common Stock (114000) + Retained Earnings (53680) = $ 167680.

Return on Equity = 15100/167680 * 100 = 9.01%

f. Debt to Equity Ratio

Debt Equity Ratio = Total Debt/Shareholders' Equity

Total Debt = Mortgage Debt (4800) + Bond Payable (21120) = $ 25920

Shareholders' Equity = $ 167680. ( as computed above in point (e.))

Debt Equity Ratio = 25920/167680 * 100 = 15.46%
