Explanation / Answer

You have provided us with the profit/loss account statement of the public traded company

Debt and Assets valuation are shown in the balance sheet (Not Provided)

(A) Cash Flow to Revenue Ratio = ( Operating Income / Net Revenue ) *100 %

In Q3, C.F/Revenue = (6,456,000/114,187,000) = 0.05653 = 5.65%

In Q4, C.F/Revenue = 8,600,000/127,919,000 = 0.0672 = 6.72%


In Q2, C.F/Revenue =  6,116,000/113,929,000 = 0.05368 = 5.36%

In Q1, C.F/Revenue = 6,698,000/114,296,000 = 0.0586 = 5.86%

(B) Cash Return on Assets = (Operating Income / Total Assets)

(C) Debt Coverage ratio = (Operating Income / Total Debt)


Assets and Debt Information is Not provided.

Information about these will be available in the Balance Sheet,


(D) Interest Coverage Ratio = Pre Income tax / Interest Expense


  In Q3, Pre Income tax / Interest Expense = 5,926,000 /574,000 = 10.32


  In Q3, Pre Income tax / Interest Expense  = 8,123,000/533,000 = 15.24


  In Q3, Pre Income tax / Interest Expense  = 5,569,000/ 590,000= 9.43


  In Q3, Pre Income tax / Interest Expense  = 6,193,000/ 555,000 = 11.15




(2) When we see the Interest Coverage Ratio, If it is less than 1.5(or 1 ) , then the company is having problems generating enough cash flow to pay its interest expenses.

But here they are far greater than 1.5 , Company Financial Strength is good in terms of Interest payments .


The higher this ratio of Cash flow to Revenue, the better it is for the company. Greater amounts of operating cash flows are always desirable.
