选项
答案(a)[*] (b)By Year 5 the company was experiencing very serious liquidity problems. The liquid ratio was 1.25. And the company had a bank overdraft of ＄1,750 on Year 5. It is a dangerous signal. As for activity ratios, the debtors Collection period was increasing from 46 days (in Year 3)to 86.10 days (in Year 5). The stock turnover was decreased to 6.91 times in Year 5. The capital turnover ratio was decreased from 2.68 times to 2.04 times (Year 5). The profitability was also worse in the three year period. Return on assets employed decreased from 73.72% (Year 4) to 50.51% (Year 5). The gross profit margin was gradually decreased from 37.5% (year 3) to 30% (Year 4) and further decreased to 28.3% (Year 5). It was clear from the above analysis that the company was in need of finding more long-term funding in order to survive. It must try to increase its profit margin and cut cost in order to have more profit.
