Question

Income Statement

1.) Pearson Brothers recently reported an EBITDA of $9.5 million and net income of $2.1 million. It had $2.0 million of interest expense, and its corporate tax rate was 40%. What was its charge for depreciation and amortization? Write out your answer completely. For example, 25 million should be entered as 25,000,000. Round your answer to the nearest dollar, if necessary.

2.) Hermann Industries is forecasting the following income statement:

The CEO would like to see higher sales and a forecasted net income of $1,890,000. Assume that operating costs (excluding depreciation and amortization) are 55% of sales and that depreciation and amortization and interest expenses will increase by 6%. The tax rate, which is 40%, will remain the same. What level of sales would generate $1,890,000 in net income? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest dollar at the end of the calculations.

Debt to Capital Ratio

3.) Bartley Barstools has a market/book ratio equal to 1. Its stock price is $16 per share and it has 4.9 million shares outstanding. The firm

Sales $6,000,000 Operating costs excluding depreciation & amortization 3,300,000 EBITDA $2,700,000 Depreciation and amortization 480,000 EBIT $2,220,000 Interest 420,000 EBT $1,800,000 Taxes (40%) 720,000 Net income $1,080,000

Explanation / Answer

Solution -

1.) Charge for depreciation and amortization -

Here we know that EBITDA - D&A - I = Profit Before Taxes (PBT)

Then we reduce Taxes from PBT as per Tax rates to arrive at the Net profit

Here we have all other figures except Depreciation & Amortization so we can calculate it using the below formula -

Net Profit = ( EBITDA - Interest Expenses- Depreciation ) - 0.40 ( EBITDA - Interest Expenses- Depreciation )

2100000 = (9500000 - 2000000 - X ) - 0.40 (9500000 - 2000000 - X)

2100000 = (7500000 - X ) - 0.40 (7500000 - X)

2100000 = (7500000 - X ) - 3000000 + 0.40X

2100000 = 7500000 - 3000000 - X + 0.40X

2100000 = 4500000 - 0.60X

0.60X = 4500000 - 2100000

0.60X = 2400000

:- X = $ 4000000

Thus we have depreciation and amortization of $ 4000000

2) Level of sales that would generate $1,890,000 in net income - Similar to above problem this one has all the figures except Sales so below is the summarize data of what we have and what we need to find

Net Profit = ( EBITDA - Interest Expenses- Depreciation ) - 0.40 ( EBITDA - Interest Expenses- Depreciation )

1890000 = ( 0.45X - 445200 - 508800 ) - 0.40 ( 0.45X - 445200 - 508800 )

1890000 = ( 0.45X - 954000 ) - 0.40 ( 0.45X - 954000 )

1890000 = ( 0.45X - 954000 ) - 0.18X +381600

1890000 = ( 0.45X - 0.18X +381600 - 954000

1890000 = 0.27X - 572400

1890000 + 572400 = 0.27X

2462400= 0.27X

;- X = 9120000 Thus we have Sales as $ 9120000

3.) Debt-to-capital ratio - Here we will have to find what the Debt is within the Capital structure of the firm

Total capital is $135 million

Stock price is $16 per share (market/book ratio equal to 1)

shares outstanding is 4.9 million

So Share Capital = 4.9 X 16 = 78.4 million so rest ie 135 million - 78.4 million = 56.6 Million is Debt

So we have Debt-to-capital ratio = Debt / Total Capital = 56600000 / 135000000 = 0.4192 :1 or 41.92 %

4)

a) profit margin on sales - to calculate we have the below details

Profit Margin = Net Income/Sales= 0.04/1.5= .0266 or 2.66 %

b. debt-to-assets ratio - To calculate this we need debt to be calculated first

we have Asset = Equity + Debt -----(1)

Now after considering

we have Asset/Equity = 14/4 means asset is 14 : 4 against Debt and

Asset = Equity + Debt so Debt/Asset = 10/14 = 5/7 = 71.42%
