1. The management of International Heal Medical Company is evaluating the


performance of its three (3) divisions. The Booboo Division had an operating
profit of ₱24,950 and, on average, used assets with a book value of
₱311,900. The Splint Division had an operating profit of ₱17,500 and used
average assets of ₱177,950. The Intensive Care Division had an operating
profit of ₱28,500 and average assets of ₱475,000. The company plans to
award the Intensive Care Division, relying on its high operating profit. Should
the management continue with this decision? Justify your answer.

Booboo Division

₱ 2490
ROA = ₱ 311900 = 0.080 or 8%

Splint Division

₱ 17500
ROA = ₱ 177950 = 0.098 or 9.8%
Intensive Care Division

₱ 28500
ROA =
₱ 475000
= 0.060 or 6%

Even though the Intensive Care Division has the highest profit it had the lower
ROA and on the other hand Splint Division had the highest ROA therefore the
management should rethink its award to Intensive Care Division as it says
therefore that Intensive Care Division had less efficient use of assets. In
conclusion the management should not continue on awarding the Intensive
Care Division but instead it should reward the Splint Division whereas it has
the highest ROA.

2. Charlie’s Construction Company is a growing construction business with a


few contracts to build storefronts in Pasay. Charlie’s balance sheet shows the
beginning assets of ₱1,000,000 and an ending balance of ₱2,000,000. During
the current year, Charlie’s company had a net income of ₱20,000,000.
Compute the company’s return on assets and interpret the results.

Net Income
Return of Assets = Average Total Assets

# Find Average Total Assets first

₱ 1 000 000+ ₱ 2 000 000


Average Total Assets = 2 = ₱ 1 500 000
# Find ROA

₱ 20 000 000
ROA =
₱ 1 500 000
= 13.33 or 1333.33%

A ROA of 1333.33% means that Charlie’s contruction company is generating


a huge amount of profit and his company is utilizing its assets efficiently.

3. Dave’s Guitar Shop is considering building an additional property onto the


back of its existing building for more storage. Dave consults with his banker
about applying for a new loan. The bank asks for Dave’s balance to examine
his overall debt levels. Dave’s total assets are ₱5,000,000, while his total
liabilities are ₱25,000. Compute Dave’s debt ratio.

Total Liabilities
Return of Assets = Total Assets

# Find Debt Ratio

₱ 25 000
Debt Ratio =
₱ 5 000 000
= 0.005 or 0.5%

Dave’s Guitar Shop does not really rely on debts thus explaining why his Debt
Ratio is very low which is 0.5%.
