Explanation / Answer

1. Inventory Turnover Ratio (ITR) = Cost of Sales / Average Inventory

Cost of sales is also known as the cost of revenue and average inventory is given under the current asset head:

2015 = cost of revenue / average inventory = 3122522 / 1277838 = 2.44

2016= cost of revenue / average inventory = 5400875 /2067454 = 2.61

2017= cost of revenue / average inventory = 9536264 / 2263537 = 4.21

ITR is the number of times inventory is sold or replaced. Higher the ratio shows that it is having an efficient management of inventories.

2. Days sales in Inventory = Number of days in a year / Inventory turnover ratio

2015= 365 / 2.44 = 149 days

2016= 366 / 2.61 = 140 days

2017= 365/ 4.21 = 87 days

Days sales in Inventory shows the number of days for which inventory is stored in the warehouse.

Shorter the number of days, it is better for the company.

3. Capital Intensity Ratio= Total assets / revenue

2015 = 8067939 / 4046025 = 1.99

2016 = 22664076 / 7000132 = 2.24

2017 = 28655372 / 11758751 = 2.44

Capital Intensity Ratio measures the amount of capital needed per dollar of revenue. It measures the efficiency of the deployment of the company's assets.

Company with higher ratio means that it needs more assets to generate the sales.

4. Profit Margin = Net Income / Net Sales or Revenue

2015 = -888663 / 4046025 = -.022

2016 = -674914 / 7000132 = - 0.10

2017 = -1961400 / 11758751 = - 0.16

Profit margin shows what percentage of sales is made up of income, negetive profit margin occurs when cost exceeds the revenue generated from the sale of product.

5. Return on Assets (ROA) = Net Income / Total assets

2015 = -888663 / 8067939 = - 0.11

2016 = -674914 / 22664076= - 0.03

2017 = -1961400 / 28655372 = -0.07

It measures how much a company is profitable in comparison to its total assets

Negative ROA shows that a company is loosing money

6. Return on Equity (ROE) = Net Income / Shareholder's Equity

2015 = -888663 / 1083704 = -0.82

2016 = -674914 / 4752911 = -0.14

2017 = 1961400 / 4237242 = -0.46

It shows net income returened as a percentage of shareholder's equity.

Negative ROE shows that shareholders are loosing money intheire investments.
