Ratio analysis.

The Corrigan Corporation’s 2004 and 2005 financial statements follow, along with some
industry average ratios.
A. Assess Corrigan’s liquidity position, and determine how it compares with peers
and how the liquidity position has changed over time.
B. Assess Corrigan’s asset management position, and determine how it compares
with peers and how its asset management efficiency has changed over time.
C. Assess Corrigan’s debit management position, and determine how it compares
with peers and how its debt management has changed over time
D. Asses Corrigan’s profitability ratios, and determine how they compare with peers
and how the profitability position has changed over time.
E. Assess Corrigan’s market value ratios, and determine how their valuation
compares with peers and how it has changed over time.
F. Calculate Corrigan’s ROE, as well as the industry average ROE, using the
extended Du Pont Equation. From this analysis, how does Corrigan’s financial
position compare with the industry average numbers?
G. What do you think would happen to its ratios if the company initiated cost-cutting
measures that allowed it to hold lower levels of inventory and substantially
decreased the cost goods sold? No calculations are necessary. Think about which
ratios would be affected by changes in these two accounts.
