1. Calculation of Ratios:

a) Return on total assets = Net income divided by the average total assets, multiplied by 100.

Year 3  = $1,523.9/$57,965 x 100 = 2.6%

Year 2  = $1,940.0/$ 59,642 x 100 = 3.3%

Year 1 =  $3,161.7 /$ 60,429  x 100 = 5.2%

b) Return on stockholders' equity: Earnings after taxes/Stockholders' equity x 100.

Year 3  = $1,523.9/$ 6,644  x 100 = 22.9%

Year 2  = $1,940.0/$7,912 x 100 = 24.5%

Year 1 =  $3,161.7 /$ 9,667  x 100 = 32.7%

c) Earnings per share: Net Income/No. of outstanding shares.

Year 3  = $1,523.9/315 = $4.84

Year 2  = $1,940.0/334 = $5.81

Year 1 =  $3,161.7 /363 = $8.71

d) Dividend yield:  This is equal to the annual dividend per share divided by stock price per share, and multiplied by 100.

Year 3  = $2.40/$92.03 x 100 = 2.61%

Year 2  = $2.40/$81.10 x 100 = 2.96%

Year 1 = $2.22/$85.58 x 100 = 2.59%

e) Price-earnings ratio:  This is equal to market price per share divided by the earnings per share.

Year 3  = $92.03/$4.84 = 19.0 times

Year 2  = $81.10/$5.81 = 13.9 times

Year 1 = $85.58/$8.71 = 9.8 times

Explanation:

a) Data

for computing earnings per share

Cash dividend per share          $ 2.40      $ 2.40        $ 2.22

Average total assets             $57,965    $ 59,642     $ 60,429

Average stock price per share  $ 92.03   $ 81.10      $ 85.58

b) Return on total assets = Net income divided by the average total assets, multiplied by 100.  It shows how well a company generates net income from assets.

Year 3  = $1,523.9/$57,965 x 100 = 2.63%

Year 2  = $1,940.0/$ 59,642 x 100 = 3.25%

Year 1 =  $3,161.7 /$ 60,429  x 100 = 5.23%

c) Return on stockholders' equity: Earnings after taxes/Stockholders' equity x 100.  It demonstrates how much of the earnings after taxes are available to stockholders.

Year 3  = $1,523.9/$ 6,644  x 100 = 22.94%

Year 2  = $1,940.0/$7,912 x 100 = 24.52%

Year 1 =  $3,161.7 /$ 9,667  x 100 = 32.71%

d) Earnings per share: Net Income/No. of outstanding shares.  It shows in dollar terms how much of the earnings made by a company is available to stockholders on the average of each share.

Year 3  = $1,523.9/315 = $4.84

Year 2  = $1,940.0/334 = $5.81

Year 1 =  $3,161.7 /363 = $8.71

e) Dividend yield:  This is equal to the annual dividend per share divided by stock price per share, and multiplied by 100.  It shows how a company pays dividend each year in relation to its share price.

Year 3  = $2.40/$92.03 x 100 = 2.61%

Year 2  = $2.40/$81.10 x 100 = 2.96%

Year 1 = $2.22/$85.58 x 100 = 2.59%

f) Price-earnings ratio:  This is equal to market price per share divided by the earnings per share.  It shows if a company is overvalued or undervalued.

Year 3  = $92.03/$4.84 = 19.0 times

Year 2  = $81.10/$5.81 = 13.9 times

Year 1 = $85.58/$8.71 = 9.8 times
