Answer:

Carver Inc.

a. Ratio Analysis:

Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities

= $318,000/87,000

= 3.66 times

Inventory turnover = cost of goods sold/average inventory

= $820,000/$185,000

= 4.43 times

Receivable turnover = Sales/Receivables

= $1,400,000/$95,000

= 14.74 times

Earnings per share = Net income/No. of shares

= $410,000/52,000

= $7.88 per share

Profit margin on sales = Net Income/Sales * 100

= $410,000/$1,400,000 * 100

= 29.29%

Rate of return on assets = Net income/Total assets * 100

= $410,000/$488,000 * 100

= 84.02%
