Profitability Performance

Calculations:

Asset turnover: total net revenues / average total assets = 485,661 / 203,706 = 2.38

Return on sales: adjusted net income / total net revenues = Step by step for 2015 =

Gross margin %: (total revenue – cost of sales) / total revenue = (485,651 – 365,086) / 485,651 = 0.2483 = 24.83%

Return on assets: adjusted net income / average total assets = 17,099 / 203,706 = 8.39%

Return on equity: net earnings / average equity  = Step by step for 2015 ?

Average interest rate: interest expense / average total liabilities  = 2,461 / 65,272 = 0.0377 = 3.77%

Average total assets: (total assets 2015 + total assets 2014)/2 = (203,706 + 204,751) / 2 = 204,228.50

Income tax rate: Provision for income taxes / earnings before income taxes = Step by step for 2015 ?

Net of tax interest expense: income tax rate x interest expense = Step by step for 2015 ?

Adjusted net income: net earning + net of tax interest expense = Step by step for 2015 ?                       

Average equity: (total shareholders’ equity 2015 + total shareholders’ equity 2014)/2 = Step by step for 201

Average total liabilities: (total liabilities 2015 + total liabilities 2014)/2 = Step by step for 2015 ?
